Jennifer Granholm
Re: Jennifer Granholm
Well, since her BFF Hillary didn't win, therefore, not anointing her Education Secretary, this is probably a good idea. She's added a couple of pounds, but still has her looks. Surprised she didn't go to Canadian for a TV gig or Politics.
Re: Jennifer Granholm
Education? She will do for CNN what she did for Michigan.
Re: Jennifer Granholm
She's to female politicians what Trump is to male. Nuts!
Re: Jennifer Granholm
With all due respect you don't recognize the facts when she was governor. When she was in office the US economy feel to the level of the Great Depression. She worked with a budget/$'s that was minuscule. Working first with President Bush and then President Obama helped save the auto industry. All documented. She deserve's a lot more credit than she gets.
Re: Jennifer Granholm
I'm sorry...Lou. She was a horrible leader. You can blame the larger economy at the time for some of it.. but not all.

And so is Rick Santorum. What's your point?
Re: Jennifer Granholm
I don't know what's happened to make CNN so ultra-liberal the last few years but she will fit right in, at least it keeps her out of goverment

Totally agree. Any time a company left Michigan, she was holding open the door and handing them directions on how to get to their new digs.radiodoc wrote:I'm sorry...Lou. She was a horrible leader. You can blame the larger economy at the time for some of it.. but not all.

I would never go as far as to say she was responsible for the exodus of jobs and population, but she did absolutely nothing, I mean nothing, to even attempt to stop it.
Re: Jennifer Granholm
I wonder if she'll blow us away with her performance on CNN....

New York and Chicago were all in with respect to their sanctuary status — until they were hit with the challenge of actually providing sanctuary. In other words, typical liberal hypocrisy.

How does that song go, trying to catch a deluge in a paper cup? I'm curious what you think she should have or could have done. Those jobs were going to the south, to Mexico, to China or just automated.sirrealone wrote:Totally agree.

Re: Jennifer Granholm
It's a good question, and do I have an authoritative answer on what, if anything, would have prevented some of these jobs from leaving? No, I don't. But I wasn't governor for eight years. She was. It was her job to fight for the state and fight for every job that left. It was her job to come up with solutions but instead she came across as basically saying "Oh, well, what can you do?".SolidGoldDancers wrote: How does that song go, trying to catch a deluge in a paper cup?

I'm not naive enough to think she had the power or influence to change things on her own, but leadership in tough times is bringing together the people that can to do the things that others say can't be done.
Yes, she presided over a very tough time for our state, but she didn't stand out in any way that deserves to be commended. What she did, anybody could have done. She didn't demonstrate leadership.

Re: Jennifer Granholm
The fact that such a hyperpartisan hack got hired by them shows just how slanted to the left CNN is. I'm not sure she completely cares that Michigan struggled under her watch as long as she could successfully pin all the blame on Republicans. Her party and agenda are all she cared about. Actually, thats true with MOST politicians.But she was more overt and obvious about it than most.
And now, with this hiring, CNN essentially admits they are a Democratic Party puppet.
