I voted for Mike Blouin for Governor, and I'll tell you why: I like him the best. I also think he will be the best Governor, but I'm not sure which factor played a bigger role in my decision.

Culver and Fallon are both good people, and I think they would both make fine Governors in their own right - not just in comparison to Nussle. But Mike Blouin has the experience, the connections, and the personality to accomplish a LOT with the office.

I think he could get a Republican to vote for a minimum wage increase and a clean elections law and make him or her believe it was their idea in the first place. He's respected across the aisle, and will be able to get more of his campaign goals accomplished than either of the other candidates.
