Dick "No Plan" DeVos picks running mate

Press Release The Extreme Team Devos/Johnson Ticket Marriage Of The Extreme LANSING – Today Michigan Democratic Party Chair Mark Brewer issued the following statement regarding Republican Gubernatorial candidate Dick DeVos’ choice of Ruth Johnson as his candidate for Lt. Governor: “It is no surprise that extreme Dick DeVos chose extreme Ruth Johnson as his running mate,” Brewer said. “Johnson met every one of DeVos’ litmus tests because they both are out of step with mainstream Michigan.” “Ruth Johnson has a record of being opposed to: stem cell research, raising the minimum wage, affirmative action, a women’s right to choose including victims of rape and incest, improving water quality, support for cities including Detroit, improving education, and stopping insurance company redlining,” Brewer added. “The DeVos/Johnson ticket is a perfect match of two extremists.” “Governor Granholm and Lt. Governor Cherry have been a powerful voice for the entire state of Michigan. They are executing the nation’s most comprehensive and aggressive jobs plan, protecting public education and are fighting for healthcare for everyone,” Brewer continued. “Voters now have a distinct contrast between the extreme right wing policies of Dick DeVos and Ruth Johnson and the Granholm Administration which is putting Michigan first.” Some of the so called journalist here are talking about how Ruth Johnson will put balance and attract female voters to the DeVos camp, Ruth Johnson do not believe in a woman right to choice, she don't believe in affirmative action two issues that are important to women. I think the selection of Ruth Johnson will have little to no effect you still got to look at the top of the ticket if the guy is a right wing tool he can have all the women on his team he wants you can't over look his stance on social issues that impact not only women but the average person in Michigan.
