"Debbie Stabenow's ridiculous email is the epitome of dishonesty and exactly why people detest career politicians. John James chose a female campaign manager to manage his team because he respects leadership capabilities, regardless of gender," campaign manager Tori Sachs said. "John James served with female officers, some who were his superior. John James was talking to a male group about what it's like for fathers to stay in the family and for men to lead -- an issue that disproportionately impacts economically depressed and minority communities. With the polls tightening, Debbie Stabenow is so desperate that she would make things up and it's disgraceful."

"Stabenow's lack of understanding shows even more why we need to shed light on the important issue of needing more male role models, particularly in the Black community. While not politically correct to say so, it's all too common for men to abandon their responsibilities in the family and the community. Debbie Stabenow has neglected this issue and chooses to fundraise on problems rather than fixing them. Debbie Stabenow shows her blindness to the issues that ail African-American community, where our women are left to raise children on their own and young boys are left without male role models. My remarks were about keeping the family and community together. Debbie Stabenow has shown through this attack she doesn't understand the problems facing the community," said James.

"I will protect the American Dream for future generations. Despite what the liberal left will tell you the surest indicator of economic success is being raised in a strong family. Too many men have largely left women to shoulder the burden of raising a family on their own. Too many are perfectly content with watching families disintegrate. Debbie Stabenow wants to replace fathers with social programs in order to keep Blacks dependent on government," continued James.

Sen. Stabenow, growing desperate, released a fundraising email attacking John for speaking about his father's story and the importance of young black men to be a presence in their children's lives just like John's father.

Here we go.

The identity politics of the radical left is revealing itself. It was just a matter of time.

Debbie Stabenow has teamed up with the DSCC to hire Hillary Clinton's henchman, David Brock and his once-accused female-shoving-staffer Mike Stark, to push a negative attack they know is totally fabricated and par for the course for a career politician. Stark was previously charged with assaulting a woman.

John James was speaking before the Christian Business Men's Connection, sharing his father's story as a young black man growing up in Mississippi, across the street from Mississippi State University, a school he could not attend because of his skin color.

In speaking to this male group, James was discussing what it's like for fathers to stay in the family, and for men to lead. John noted that men need to be leaders in family and in life. John was trying to inspire men and talking about the lack of male leaders, particularly in the African-American community. How desperate is Stabenow that she is taking shots at John's attempt to inspire men to step up?

Stabenow, who knows the polls are tightening, is launching a desperate attack based on John's comment.

The irony is sad. The actions are desperate.
