McCain will go off TV in Michigan, stop dropping mail there and send most of his staff to more competitive states, including Wisconsin, Ohio and Florida. Wisconsin went for Kerry in 2004, Ohio and Florida for Bush.

The article makes it sound like the economy is the main reason why McCain can't gain traction with the voters in Michigan. But, another reason might be the fact that Michigan is home to the largest US Arab/Muslim population, and they're not happy with the McCain/Palin positions on the three I's - Iran, Iraq and Israel. Of course, the Zionist controlled main-stream media will never mention this possibility because they would be admitting to the growing Arab and Muslim political influence in the United States.

US sending fewer Iraqi refugees to Michigan to ease economic woes

Michigan is one of the nation's top destinations for Iraqi refugees, having received about 3,000 of the 13,823 Iraqi refugees allowed into the country between Oct. 1, 2007, and Sept. 30, 2008, based on U.S.. State Department figures obtained by The Associated Press on Wednesday. Now the state only can take refugees who have a close relative such as a parent, child or sibling in the state.
