DICK CHENEY LINES UP BEHIND LIKELY STEELE CHALLENGER MARIA CINO

Dick Cheney Lines Up Against Michael Steele
By Nick Wing


Senior Reporter, HuffPost

Dec 1, 2010, 12:21 PM EST
|Updated May 25, 2011


Dick Cheney and other GOP heavyweights are setting up a fundraiser for Maria
Cino, a former Bush Commerce Department official and Deputy Transportation
Secretary who may soon be announcing her intent to challenge Michael Steele for
the RNC chair position.

According to CNN the event will be held at GOP strategist Mary Matalin's
Virginia home and feature guests such as Ed Gillespie, former New York Rep. Bill
Paxon and former Bush aides Melissa Bennett and Emily Lampkin. It is reportedly
designed to channel donations into Cino's recently created 527 group.

According to CNN's report:

> But as the fundraiser makes clear, Cino is all but certain to jump in the race
> and could formally announce her bid at the end of next week. She is slated to
> participate in a closed-door interview session Thursday with the bloc of RNC
> conservatives.

The lining up of powerful Bush-era officials, including the administration's
vice president, against Michael Steele is the latest sign of bad news for the
RNC Chairman, who was recently hit with a poll that suggested Republican voters
were strongly supportive of his departure. And that was before he was tripped up
yet again by news that he'd allegedly showered large amounts of RNC money on a
longtime aide.



Saul Anuzis, former GOP chairman of Michigan, has already officially announced
his plans to take on Steele for the RNC leadership role, as has former
Luxembourg ambassador Anne Wagner. More challengers are still expected to throw
their hats into the ring in the lead-up to the mid-January selection process.
