Give us a break!

It is rather disheartening to read about my “hometown” Detroit these days (for the past few months, in fact). I thought the text message scandal with which Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick was involved was enough. Then a double hit – national headlines about alleged corruption on the City Council AND more budget deficits and continued declining enrollment in the Detroit Public Schools.

No news is much better than this news. I can’t help but wonder how low the ball will have to fall before the city and state gets another shot at a run.

Not good for Detroit; not good for Michigan.
