Will Rob Portman Welcome Dick Cheney To Ohio To Campaign On His Behalf?

National Republican Senatorial Committee Chairman John Cornyn was asked if Cheney should campaign for candidates like Rob Portman and said, "I'd be proud to appear with the vice president anywhere, anytime."
Redfern responded, "Former Vice President Cheney should come to Ohio often and campaign for Rob Portman. They could talk about Portman's role as the architect of the Bush economy and the impact Portman's economic policies had in so many Ohioans losing their jobs, their homes, and their health care. Cheney could praise Rob Portman for being the number one proponent of job-killing trade agreements under George Bush."
Cheney endorsed Rob Portman in March and said that he would be willing to campaign for him. He told CNN, "We've got a lot of good folks out there, I think a new generation of leaders coming along, people like Rob Portman in Ohio... I look forward to helping them some day, if they need my help, in terms of whatever I can do to see them succeed."
John Cornyn's wholehearted praise of Dick Cheney and Cheney's willingness to campaign for Portman begs the question, will Rob Portman welcome Cheney to Ohio to campaign on his behalf

It's kind of pathetic how he uses his daughter (like McCain) to soften his image. He reminds me of The Penguin, as played by Danny DeVito.
