AAS 8/11/10New TV commercial criticizes Rick Perry over Trans-Texas CorridorHouston trial lawyer Steve Mostyn will open a new front in his election-year war against Gov. Rick Perry today by launching a television commercial that criticizes Perry's pursuit of the Trans-Texas Corridor.
Mostyn is fast becoming the pre-eminent donor in Texas Democratic politics and a key player in the race for governor. He has put more than $2 million into Democratic causes and campaigns in this election cycle and appears poised to spend several million more.
Much of that money has gone to the Back to Basics Political Action Committee, which has already aired two statewide television commercials critical of the governor.
In the group's third ad, which will launch statewide today, a rancher says Perry "would bulldoze half a million acres of private land — and give it to a Spanish company to build toll roads and let the company set the tolls. When lawmakers tried to stop him, Perry vetoed the law."
I love this Back to Basics PAC! :loveya:
