Keith Butler is our RNC National Committeeman-elect. This plans to be an
enjoyable event as we will have an opportunity to have a comfortable
conversation concerning his plans for Michigan Republican involvement
and national issues.

This event is being hosted at the home of Mark Ouimet and Donna
Hrozencik.

Please RSVP today to:  lincolnpassclub@provide.net

We look forward to seeing you there!

The Event Calendar was incorrect.  The Washtenaw GOP Lincoln Day Dinner is on February 29th, not the 22nd.  Please update your calendars.  Thanks!

Even though the story is about Biden, this paragraph about how the electorate, both Rs and Ds, chooses its candidates is (I feel) spot on:

"Ten years of endless blather about the game of politics on cable TV have trained the most engaged American voters to handicap candidates rather than hear them, to pontificate about who might win rather than deciding whom they actually want to win. Voters seem to approach politics increasingly as pundits, and they look to poll numbers to tell them who’s electable and who isn’t, never stopping to realize that they are the ones who get to decide."
