The Michigan Republican presidential primary is coming up Tuesday, and candidate Romney still won’t give up on his “I would have let the American automakers fail” story. Props I suppose for not being wishy-washy. But it would probably be better for him if he would talk less about it. Michiganders tend to remember just how bad things were in 2008 and 2009. And many are intimately aware of how private bankruptcy works (and sometimes doesn’t work). So the he may be attracting a handful of ideologues, but come November it sure won’t help him carry Michigan.
