Amway Nation, part 14

Dick DeVos is everywhere
You know what's scary? Besides the elderly menace, this:
"They didn't imagine he would stay up this long ... and now they're scared to death he may stay up forever," said Ballenger, who added that he also believes the ads have given DeVos credibility as a potential alternative to Granholm.
That fear of nearly limitless spending is well founded. DeVos' vast personal wealth means he is theoretically capable of spending tens of millions of his own money on the campaign, Ballenger said.

Michigan voters are working my last nerve. Ads giving DeVos credibility. The man HAS no credibility. He lays off workers, invests in China, gets the city of Grand Rapids to subsidize his family's feifdom...But apparently, having lots of money is enough to bring DICK into a tie in the polls.
Have I forgotten to tell you he ran AMWAY? Ran it so well it had to change its name to Quixtar. Also, he and Tom Delay are good friends.
(I'm deliberately not linking to the stories that a doubting reader could easily find in three seconds of Googling.)

Granholm's campaign has not announced a start date for its advertising. The state Democratic Party has been waging a low-budget, Web-based campaign in an attempt to undermine DeVos' advertising claims. But the party also has so far stayed off commercial television.
This better be the greatest Rope-a-dope act since the Ali-Foreman fight, because if this low-budget internet campaign is their strategy, Michigan is finally screwed.
