At least four of us were from there, and I saw another person who's worked for him for years stop by there after I left. Interestingly, Mike actually won the city of Lansing itself in 2002 despite it being about 1/3 minority, heavily union (UAW and government), pro-government, and 65% democrat. <br /><br />I think the two major problems we have is pandering, and conceding the contest before it's started.
