Slotkin was recently on the New York Times' Run-Up podcast and I was really impressed by her. She's not AOC but she's still a very mainstream Dem that doesn't seem problematic in any of her positions? I don't get what some Dems (especially on Election Twitter) have against her. She seems perfectly normal and what your average dem in a place like Michigan would be.

Yeah she's at worst Amy Klobuchar and at best Kirsten Gillibrand. She would be absolutely no threat to the Dems' agenda. Personally, I wouldn't have any issue with her winning the primary.

I'm actually impressed with Harper's policy set and background after reading that Time piece. I'm not one of the progressives who is turned off by Slotkin, but I would be thrilled if Harper could win the primary and I'm intrigued to see if he can actually pull it off.

From his Wiki article;

On September 14, 2021, Craig attempted to announce his bid for Governor on Belle Isle, but was unable to be heard due to the presence of protestors who surrounded him on the podium, chanting "No justice, no peace, James Craig is still police."

In October 2021, Craig faced criticism after reporting revealed that he was never certified as a police officer in Michigan while serving as Detroit Police Chief.

They’re not sending their best!

These two quotes juxtaposed together is so. f--king. funny. James Craig can't "still" be the police if he never was in the first place!!!!!

Man, major respect to Harper for that move. I'm no fan of Tlaib but I think we ought to have fewer divisive primaries amongst Democrats; if someone wants to run against Tlaib, they ought to do so of their own volition.
