Gwen Graham Hit by GOP PAC in New TV Ad

The Congressional Leadership Fund, a Republican super-PAC, waded into North Florida on Tuesday, announcing plans to spend $600,000 against Democrat Gwen Graham who is running against U.S. Rep. Steve Southerland, R-Fla.

The new ads try to link Graham to Beltway Democrats like President Barack Obama and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif. In recent days, Graham has tried to distance herself from her partys leadership, including saying she would not vote for Pelosi to be speaker.

Gwen Graham can try to masquerade as independent but North Florida voters wont be fooled when shes bankrolled by Washington Democrats, said Emily Davis, a spokeswoman for Congressional Leadership Fund, on Tuesday. North Florida families and seniors know that a vote for Gwen Graham is a vote for President Obamas policies that are costing them more.
