There she goes again

A lobbyist for Electronic Data Systems prepared an internal memo detailing its plan to gather about $30,000 in contributions for the Granholm campaign, "to secure our position now with the future governor."  EDS hopes to be the successful bidder on a very large IT contract in this state.  Now that this document has hit the press, Granholm is pedaling away furiously, cancelling the fundraiser where the donation was to be made, and vowing that she will not accept any money from EDS employees.  See "New memo says Granholm shows favor to donors" -- Michigan Daily, October 18, 2002

Meanwhile, Bill Ballenger's Inside Michigan Politics notes that Granholm remains in the lead "despite having run a truly vapid gubernatorial campaign." 

I suppose that the saying is true in the end:  We will get the governor we deserve.
