Skinner Considering Rematch Against Knollenberg

WASHINGTON (AP) — Democrat Nancy Skinner said Friday that she was laying the ground work to make another bid for Congress against Rep. Joe Knollenberg, R-Mich., in Oakland County.

Skinner, who was defeated by Knollenberg last year, said she would make a final decision after Labor Day.

Nancy will be the only candidate in this race to have already taken on Knollenberg. By garnering 46% of the vote to Joe's 51.5%, despite the fact that she was outspent 7-1, she showed that she can win this seat against him with additional financial resources.

Let's not assume that Peters will be the presumptive candidate against Joe -- we have a primary to get through first and Nancy has held onto a lot of her support from 2006.

In addition to having already had the experience of running against Knollenberg, Nancy holds progressive positions on all of the important issues: the Iraq war, a woman's right to choose, stem cell research, the environment, jobs, health care, etc. Nancy believes our auto industry will recover and grow when we embrace the future and push for national funding to leapfrog to technologies like fuel cells, advanced hybrids and the national infrastructure at fueling stations to accommodate them. She is a strong supporter of the unions and will fight hard for workers' rights and new technologies that will create new jobs. A vote for Nancy is a win win for the economy and the environment.

2. Thank you so much!

She's got a tough primary ahead of her. Please spread the word to people you know in Illinois who used to listen to her there. It should be a good place for her to raise some bucks and this time around she'll have to raise for the primary and then again for the general if she wins (when she wins, I hope).
