Thats right, he's running for Governor...:eek:


God help our state if he gets in...


FLINT, Mich. -- Don Williamson has been in charge of the city of Flint for years, but now the mayor has his eyes on a new challenge.

During a news conference Thursday afternoon Williamson said he will run for governor.

Lt. Gov. John Cherry and Genesee County treasurer Daniel Kildee have also been rumored to be taking a stab at the open position in 2010.

Williamson, 73, said he would run as a Democrat.

Just six months ago, Williamson was re-elected Flint mayor when he defeated challenger Dayne Walling with 51 percent of the vote.

If elected, Williamson would be the first governor from Flint since 1865's Henry Crapo.

Gov. Jennifer Granholm will not be able to seek re-election in 2010 because of term limits.

He can run, but its up to the people to put him there so... dont vote for him!

He ran for Mayor of Flint, and somehow he got elected...so thats the scary part...

I hear ya, well then, YOU should RUN! :D

I wouldn't want to try and run this mess we have here...

I would hope the rest of the state is smart enough to laugh at him if he does try running... anyone with eyes can see how awesome of a job he's done in Flint. :rolleyes:
