Dems Wage War on GOP Woman Hoping to Land Levin’s Senate Seat

By: American Decency Staff

Michigan Democrats have enlisted women to wage war on Republican Senate candidate Terri Lynn Land.

The party — hoping Rep. Gary Peters is enough of a candidate for the Democrats to hang on to the Senate seat held by Sen. Carl Levin since 1978 — is using a series of videos showing women describing their dissatisfaction with former secretary of state Land, who has been accused of waging war on her own gender.

These videos are just one part of $8 million in advertising being shot at Michigan voters by the campaigns of Land, Peters and the outside groups supporting them. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce has promised to spend up to $400,000 to support Land — one of several races in which the Chamber will be spending campaign money. The American Sustainable Business Council Action Fund — an environmental group — has been running TV ads in western Michigan in support of Peters.

Democrats, Republicans, outside groups and the candidates’ campaigns could spend a total of $50 million on this race by November.
