Supporters of Sen. Mike Enzi (R-WY) have formed a new super PAC to aid his re-election campaign against Republican Senate candidate Liz Cheney.

Political strategist Bill Cubin and Wyoming Business Council co-chairman Dick Bratton have are behind the new super PAC, called “Wyoming’s Own,” a clear dig at Cheney who until recently was living in Virginia.

According to the Casper Star-Tribune on Tuesday, Wyoming’s Own plans to release newspaper, T.V. and radio ads as well as print and online ads.

“Our purpose isn’t to throw muck,” Cubin told the Wyoming newspaper. “Enzi is a humble, soft-spoken, hard-working public servant for Wyoming. He, along with Sen. (John) Barrasso and Rep. (Cynthia) Lummis are really one of the strongest delegations in Congress. We want to protect that delegation.”
