Everything out of Detroit these days revolves around the multiple efforts to get Kilpatrick out of office; but what happens then? With the problems plaguing our mayor, who will act for him if he is unable due to court proceedings or a night in jail? More importantly, what happens if he resigns or one of the efforts to get rid of him actually works? With Governor Granholm's hearing coming up in September, it may be time to find out more about who will replace Mayor Kilpatrick.
