Former U-S Congressman and current Republican candidate for the U-S Senate Pete Hoekstra is taking cues from Governor Rick Snyder's successful campaign in 2010. Hoekstra bought ad time during this weekend's Super Bowl. That's what Snyder did to introduce his popular "One Tough Nerd" ad two years ago. Hoekstra said he will also run a positive campaign against his opponents in the Republican primary for U-S Senate. He said that means he will focus on the Democratic incumbent, U-S Senator Debbie Stabenow.
"I'm going to talk about what my agenda is and contrast that to what Debbie Stabenow's agenda is. That's what this race needs to be about."
Hoekstra appeared on public television's "Off the Record." He's running in the G-O-P primary against anti-gay activist Gary Glenn, school-choice advocate Clark Durant, businessmen Peter Konetchy and Chuck Marino, former judge Randy Hekman, activist Scott Boman and retired autoworker Rick Wilson.
