Primary Results – Michigan, Missouri, Kansas

Yesterday primaries occurred in several states.

In Michigan, moderate Republican Rick Snyder beat 4 other candidates (including crazy conservative Rep. Pete Hoekstra) to win the Republican nomination. The Democratic nomination was won by Lansing mayor Virg Bernero. Does his name sound familiar? It could be because last year he ripped apart Neil Cavuto on Fox.

I like this guy!

Other interesting news in Michigan, longtime Rep. Carolyn Cheeks Kilpatrick (mother of jailed former Detroit mayor Kwame Kilpatrick) lost her Democratic primary to state senator Hansen Clarke.

In Kansas DeMint-backed crazy conservative Rep. Jerry Moran beat Palin-backed crazy conservative Rep. Todd Tiahrt to get the GOP nomination for Senate. Moran will face Lisa Johnston in November. Crazy conservative Sen. Sam Brownback became the GOP nominee for governor.

In Missouri, the Senate race will be between Roy Blunt, who defeated a Tea Party conservative Chuck Purgason, and Robin Carnahan.
