Something you need to understand about Michiganders is that we don't particularly LIKE DC politicians and generally if you have super tight ties to the very same people who cored out the Rust Belt for a few pennies a share back in the 90's, you're going to have to work extra hard to earn our trust. And if we don't trust you, it's not like we're gonna change parties - we just won't show up to vote for you.
