Gov_hs_sm_54991_7

Tampa City Council candidate Mary Mulhern is calling in the big guns — her sister-in-law, Michigan Gov. Jennifer Granholm — in her bid against City Councilman Shawn Harrison, who has her beat more than 10-1 in the bank account department.

Mulhern's campaign says Granholm will be in town for one day on Saturday, Feb. 17. No other details of the Democratic guv's visit are set yet.

(Disclosures all over the place: Mulhern used to work with me here at

CL. Harrison used to be a client of mine when I was a political

consultant, and my former business partner, Colleen Mackin, is involved

in his campaign.)
