How the attempt to blow up NWA Flight 253 en route to Detroit became an issue in the race for Michigan governor. Republican candidate and U.S. Rep. Pete Hoekstra cites the incident in a fundraising letter, and fellow Republican candidate Rick Snyder takes him on. Also, the Hoekstra campaign today sent reporters a copy of a Rasmussen poll, previously mentioned here and released Dec. 19, that showed him as the favorite among GOP contenders measured head-to-head against Lt. Gov. John Cherry, currently the leading Democratic candidate.
