Things aren't what they seems to be with Dick DeVos.
Things aren't what they seems to be with Dick DeVos.
In his early ads Dick DeVos likes to portray himself as a concern businessmen with moderate Republican (even though he don't say he's a Republican) views who saw his state in a dire need of a change and a need of a new leader therefore he has jumped on his white horse riding to save Michigan from the grasp of the evil Jennifer Granholm and if elected he will bring Michigan back to a level that other state will envy well that's the general theme you get from his ads. Taking a line from a talk show host here's the real deal about Dick DeVos he isn't a moderate businessman and he's isn't riding a white horse to save Michigan, what Mr. DeVos is he's a right wing corporate Republican and he's riding on a black horse looking to lob off the heads of the middle class and working poor of Michigan. Dick DeVos main is that he wants to further tip the scale to benefit the already wealthy elite in the state while we flip the bill for it.
It seems the DeVos camp realize that Granholm is picking up the pace due to the polls one that has them even and the other has Granholm up by 7 points so in response DeVos will make us viewers of local tv suffer with more ads that his daddy paid for. In this round ads from Dick DeVos the ads gone from fluffy sweet cotton candy rhetoric with no substance to very nasty with no substance, Dick DeVos and his cronies in the Michigan Republican party have gone the route for blaming Granholm for everything for jobs leaving the state, sagging performance of the big three hell if they can blame Granholm for Ben Wallace leaving the Pistons trust me they will have an ad with a kid in a big Ben Wallace Piston jersey crying outside the Palace saying "why governor Granholm you couldn't force Ben to stay?" Not only his ads turned nasty even though he wanted to get out of the mud and get down to business he has resorted to lie in his ads for example the last two ads he ran, DeVos got rip for doctoring quotes by the papers that he used in the ad and the second ad "left behind" DeVos out and out lied. First he claimed Granholm never met with Honda officials when in fact she did, he shows a plant being tore down but negates to mention the plant shown being tore down was replace with a state of the art facility, he also claimed the New York times was critically of her when in reality The Times just printed what Dick DeVos and the Michigan Republicans said. And now he got a radio ad whining about outsourcing which is ironic I get to that in a few, what's amazes me about his campaign that he's basing it on things he's against. Here's the history about Dick DeVos one as head of Amway Dick DeVos has shipped out over 1,000 jobs from Michigan to China, invest millions in the Chinese economy on top of lobbying for more unfair trade policies that benefited him and his friends. Let's not forget DeVos funding right wing think tanks to talk about how outsourcing gets a bad rap, on top of being anti union and anti worker his wife said people getting high wages was the problem.
The guy has no plan, no ideas and he's want to be governor? If you want George W. Bush to run the state of Michigan then by all means vote for Dick DeVos if you want Michigan to improve keep Granholm.
