Rick Albin needs a Schauer

We are informed that Battle Creek's own State Senator Mark Schauer will be the guest on WOOD TV 8's "To the Point" with Rick Albin - former Republican candidate and staffer for 2nd district Republican Congressman Pete Hoekstra who, by the way, was part of the Jack Abramoff affair- a fact ignored by the mass media in West Michigan including Mr. Rick Albin.

Schauer is the Democratic Floor Leader in the State Senate and Chair of the Senate Democrat’s Campaign Committee. He represents the 19th Senate District, which includes all of Calhoun County and most of Jackson County.

The show will cover the economy, outsourcing, the election year political posturing over the SBT (which most businesses don't pay and when polled say is not their biggest concern- health care is if you didn't know, but you don't hear the state GOP which controls the legislature doing anything on that, do you?), and the 2006 campaigns which, thanks to the $2 million already spent by Billionaire Dick Devos, has already been underway for quite some time.

The show airs at 10 a.m. tomorrow, Sunday, April 16.

This is the station’s first streaming video broadcast and can be found by clicking the pretty blue words right here.

I thought Schauer was really shaky in that interview. He had to let Albin make several of his points. I don't know if he hadn't enough coffee or what but he was not ready for prime time or even Sunday morning. I like Schauer but he comes off so mamby pampy at times. He suffers from the same problem as Granholm- an unwillingness to shoot from the hip and let the chips fall where they may. We need tough Democrats who will stand up to the idiots in the state legislator. This state is being run into the ground by Sikkema and DeRoche who are just trying to stall and block Granholm from doing anything in order to get Slick Dick elected in November- and she's letting them get away it.
