Michigan Chatter

I've been working the phones, calling folks I know in Michigan. One conservative operative in the state tells me this:

I think McCain wins. He's leading in all the polls.

Although Romney has had a strong couple of days, I think overall his message, although targeting the economy, I don't think connects with residents. It almost seems like he's targeting the union auto workers.

Huckabee has the strong "I'm a conservative" message that the Dutch Christian Conservative base of west Michigan can connect too.

The conservative vote could easily be split between Huckabee and Romney. Romney will clearly take in a larger percentage, but I still think McCain wins.

It's t-minus 12 hours until the polls open and I still don't know who I am voting for.
