Democrats in U.S. Senate race debate

Five candidates vying for the Democratic nomination in Georgia’s U.S. Senate race got together last night for debate in Atlanta. There were sparks over the issue of campaign cash. The two candidates who have said they will not accept money from political action committees--Dale Cardwell and Josh Lanier--went after Jim Martin. Martin has been taking the largest number of PAC contributions. The debate also included candidates Vernon Jones and Rand Knight. The five are facing-off in the primary for the right to take-on Republican Saxby Chambliss in November.
