The Engler Undertow: Snyder’s speech shouldn’t have the upbeat tone of Rick’s previous speeches

Comment on the Michigan View on January 19, 2011.

The Engler Undertow is voiced by his creation, The Mackinac Center. MacCen takes down expectations for Snyder's SOS: A bodacious plunge back into the muck.


'[Snyder's] words must be sober because the cookie jars are empty,' MacCen's LaFaive said."

MacCen's Harding: "'Is he going to do it? To me, in a State of the State you ought to be laying out specific proposals that will make drastic changes. People are trying to figure out what he is trying to do. This, to some degree, is his unveiling.'"

We all remember the typical Engler SOS: A sawed-off shotgun held aloof in two hands like NRA's Charlton Heston and his contorted face, John's crackling off-pitch voice loudly bellowing over juvenile offenders he labeles "Punks" !

Yes, we remember. A Engleresque specter that bone ugly, uncivil, and provocative can never be forgotten, or forgiven.
