Progress for America Announces TV Ad, Grassroots and Internet Campaign Supporting Judge Alito

WASHINGTON, Oct. 31 /PRNewswire/ -- Progress For America Inc. (PFA) today announced a one-week $425,000 advertising buy, $50,000 e-campaign and 20 state grassroots effort to persuade opinion leaders in Washington, DC and across America that Judge Samuel Alito is a tremendously qualified judge who deserves to be confirmed.

"Although some liberal extremists will inevitably urge Senate Democrats to obstruct Judge Alito's nomination, they should set bitter partisanship aside," said Brian McCabe, PFA's president. "No one can argue that Judge Alito is anything but extremely well qualified for the Court and his unanimous confirmation to the Third Circuit Court of Appeals will undermine any attempt by liberals to argue that he is an ideologue."
