Cardwell Statement on Vice President Cheney Raising Money for Chambliss

( Atlanta ) Statement by Dale Cardwell, Democratic candidate for U.S. Senate, on Vice President Dick Cheney's raising money for Sen. Saxby Chambliss:

“This is another sign that Saxby Chambliss is part of the problem in Washington . Saxby blindly follows while Dick Cheney and special interests write our nation's energy policy and immigration bill. Cheney is just here to return the favor by dumping cash into his faithful servant's campaign account. Georgians need an independent voice in the Senate who will work to change the system and tell the truth, and I want to be that person.”
