Michigan | Weather changes some plans...

Both Sen. Kerry and First Lady Laura Bush will swing through Michigan today with a last minute push to get out the votes. Due to some rather rotten weather here in the Detroit area, Sen. Kerry’s team decided to move his rally indoors at the Joe Louis Arena.
It is not clear whether the First Lady will speak outside or inside when she visits North of Detroit in the suburbs.

Nearly 150,000 people lost power in the Detroit area over the weekend due to some powerful wind storms. Local Power Company officials are scrambling to return power to those affected. Schools are being targeted first, since this is where most voting precincts take place in the State of Michigan.

As you post your comment, please mind our simple comment policy: we welcome all perspectives, but require that comments be both civil and respectful. We also ask that you avoid the extensive use of profanity, racist terms (neither of which we consider civil or respectful), and other boorish language.

We reserve the right to delete any comment, and to prohibit you from commenting on this site, if we feel you have broached this policy. As a courtesy, we will first send you an email noting a violation so you understand the boundaries. This will occur only once, however, and should we ban you from our comment forums we expect that ban to be permanent.

We also will frown upon those who suggest that we ban other individuals for voicing unpopular opinions, should those opinions be voiced in a civil and respectful manner. The point of our comment threads is to provide a forum for spirited though civil and respectful discourse … it is not to provide a forum in which everyone will agree with your point of view.

If you can live by these rules, welcome aboard. If not, then we’re sorry it didn’t work out, and thanks for visiting The Command Post.
