Anuzis on Levin Announcement

Lansing, MI – Democratic U.S. Senator Carl Levin announced today that he will be seeking reelection in 2008.  Michigan Republican Party Chairman Saulius “Saul” Anuzis issued the following statement in response:

“A reelection announcement this early, before most people have closed their books on the last campaign, signals loud and clear to Michigan Republicans that this seat will be in play in 2008.  Senator Levin has typically run his campaigns without politicking until the last possible moment.  This early display of political gamesmanship demonstrates that once again, Michigan will be on the radar screen as a place where Republicans can make real gains.  We will be ready to challenge Senator Levin for that Senate seat.”
