Santorum Raising Big Bucks with Cheney, Tries to Distance Himself from Bush

HARRISBURG, PA: As Rick Santorum tries to two-step his way around both Pennsylvania and Washington and distance himself from the unpopular President, Vice President Dick Cheney is in Shavertown today headlining a $1,000 per person fundraiser for the Senator’s ailing campaign.

“Santorum wants to take Bush money while pretending to act as a voice for Presidential accountability,” said Rep. T.J. Rooney, Chair of the PA Democratic Party, today. “The only accounting going on, though, is Santorum counting the money Bush and Cheney are dumping into his campaign.”

Santorum’s recent political behavior has surprisingly transparent. As he and the President both have record low poll numbers, he has stepped away from Bush and Cheney, recently criticizing the administration on the Harriet Miers nomination and Social Security, among other issues.

Santorum is trying desperately to portray himself in a way that in no way reflects his legislative record or agenda. In 2004, Santorum voted with Bush 100% of the time.

“Santorum’s fancy footwork of late is comical, and destined for failure,” Rooney followed. “He needs this fundraiser, though so he can continue trying to buy a complete political self-reinvention.”
