A political action committee (PAC) affiliated with Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) is spending millions to save Michigan Sen. Gary Peters (D) in a hotly contested race with GOP challenger John James.
A James campaign memo given to Fox News on Tuesday claimed the Senate Majority PAC “will spend $5.4 million in one week — this is the most money they are spending on any Democrat in the entire nation,” according to Stu Sandler, the campaign’s general consultant.
“They are very nervous about John James, and they should be,” he wrote.
“The astounding sum that the Senate Majority PAC is spending shows how close John James is to winning the US Senate seat in Michigan,” Sandler continued.
“Schumer and the Democrats are in sheer panic that the $35 million that they have spent against John James over the past year still has John James within striking distance of winning the Senate race.”
The Senate Majority PAC is attempting to flip the Senate to Democrats, but in Michigan, Schumer’s group is trying to protect a seat currently held by his party.

Okay, now that we know how much money the Dems. are dumping into this race, can we find out how much money the Republicans are countering with?
At the very least, the rats spending money on an incumbent leaves them with fewer resources to flip a seat elsewhere. And if they are devoting more resources to Michigan, there must be something there making them uncomfortable.
James has a great radio ad going also.
And, replace him with a candidate who is a Republican and strong Conservative!
Bernie Sanders revealed to a rally over the weekend that he plans to be awarded a health care committee chairmanship should Democrats regain control of the Senate .

The Vermont senator has long been a champion of “Medicare-for-All,” a system some Republicans believe would result in a complete government takeover that eliminates private and employer-provided health insurance .
“If the Democrats gain control of the Senate, you’re looking at the chairman of the Subcommittee on Health,” Sanders said to raucous cheers .
So that’s Commissar Bernie’s latest consolation prize.
It must be a very profitable position, worth considerably more than a nice lakeside dacha.
Theybalways spend the most money against black republicans and women republicans.
Just sent James another $50 donation last night. I encourage other FReepers to contribute. James has a real shot at flipping this MI seat.
$100 in last week. $100 earlier. James is a good man. Will be beneficial to President Trump over next 4 years.
We have conservative media for example Sean, Rush, Mark, Laura ,Lou, Maria that have radio and TV.
What I can’t understand and if somebody out there can enlighten me please do...
Why is it they don’t give sufficient radio and airtime to these candidates ?
The left and the communists are out spending them 3 to 1..,4 to 1...
With 26 days left, put the regular guests on hold...
And help these candidates by providing them exposure, and let them tell us what’s happening on the ground, so we can get updates from the frontline ...
It’s a waste of time having the same guest on these platform... Wasted opportunity to the maximum..
Does this make any sense to anybody ?
