I'm sorry, but if she wins (and she's ahead), this is going to be poisonous. I'm not sure what his game is.

Rhetoric like this just splits the party.

Whitmer is the only Dem running for Gov that has political experience. Snyder has ruined our state and we need someone who can get in there and change things.

Some of these novice politicians are poisoning the well of any future runs for themselves.
