Third and final gubernatorial debate tonight

This is it. If there are more bombs to be dropped, now is the time.



LANSING, Mich. (AP) - With only three weeks to go before the election, tonight's third and final gubernatorial debate could be the candidates' best chance to nail down votes in the waning days of the campaign.



Democratic Governor Granholm and her Republican rival Dick DeVos have used the two previous debates to jab at each other and explain why they would be the best choice to lead Michigan.
Now, they have to seal the deal.



DeVos sharpened his attacks on the governor during the second debate Tuesday in Grand Rapids and during a presentation Thursday to the Detroit Economic Club.



He managed to string two sentences together and came off like the mean and vindictive little man that he his. He still hasn't explained how he will replace $3.6 billion in revenue. He still can't point to any jobs he has created. He used slippery and evasive language to hide his extreme social views. And, to prove how low he will go, he dragged the names of dead children into the mix, proving that the GOP will Leave No Child Unexploited in their quest for power.



For her part, Granholm has continued to question how DeVos' plans to cut business taxes will affect services such as education, police protection and health care.



C'mon Governor- let's make the Detroit News and the GR Press eat their words. Put this bastard on the ground for good.



Fight back!
