MI: Commentator Says "Give Independents a Chance"

From the Detriot Free Press:
A few months from now, a small minority of Michigan voters will go to the polls to pick the major political parties' candidates for governor. I've no idea who the winners will be. But I will go out on a limb and predict that the vast majority of voters are going to be disappointed in whichever pair is left standing.
By September, readers will be writing me every day to ask: 1) How did we end up with such a dismal choice? and 2) If this is the best Democrats and Republicans can do, why doesn't some reasonable independent candidate come forward to capitalize on voters' disenchantment with both parties?
