The generally Democratic state of Michigan is shaping up to be a key state in the Republican race for the White House, as mixed results in Iowa and New Hampshire place new emphasis on its upcoming primary.
While the Democrats have largely refrained from campaigning in Michigan because of a dispute over the timing of the state's January 15 primary, Republican candidates John McCain and Mitt Romney look set for a showdown.
..."McCain won Michigan in February of 2000, but essentially came to a screeching halt because he ran out of money. A win in Michigan would be helpful and by golly, I hope we win. But it's just one step in a very long trek."
Like other states, Michigan worries about the war in Iraq and health care. But the economy remains the looming issue.
I believe McCain has a strong possibility to win in Michigan but you can't be certain. Look at what happened in New Hampshire, everyone thought Obama had it in the bag but Hillary won. So this race is gonna be very close in both parties.
