MCRI Watch [John J. Miller]
Latest poll on the Michigan Civil Rights Initiative: 43 percent in favor, 42 percent against, and 15 percent undecided. A quick analysis:

Sarpolus said support for the affirmative action ban has plummeted because of the avalanche of opposition from mainstream businesses, religious, labor and civic groups. The opponents are waging an anti-ban campaign on cable TV ads that feature women — including Detroit Police Chief Ella Bully-Cummings — talking about what affirmative action programs have meant to their careers. ... Opponents — a broad coalition that includes the Michigan Catholic Conference, the Michigan Chamber of Commerce and the Michigan AFL-CIO — say it would wipe out decades of civil rights progress for women and minorities.
