We don't need his Lieutenant Governor Calley running for governor as an incumbent. And for the interim, Calley may be more right-wing than Snyder.

Granted, it would feel good to see Snyder booted out, but there could be consequences.

I'm not knowledgeable about MI politics. I doubt that he would be impeached anyway. Mich sounds about as corrupt as it is down here in Texas.

I'm wondering if Snyder (should he escape unscathed) might try to run against Senator Stabenow.

It's seeking monetary damages and attorney fees.

No criminal charges have been filed yet.
