Liz Cheney, Daughter of Vice President, Throws Support Behind Mitt Romney

With Fred Thompson no longer in the race Liz Cheney has shifted her support to a new Republican presidential candidate as the 41-year-old daughter of the Vice President has signed on to the Mitt Romney campaign as a senior foreign policy adviser.

 

Cheney, the eldest daughter of Dick Cheney, had originally endorsed Fred Thompson but the former Tennessee senator dropped out of the race last week.

 

Cheney has plenty of experience working in foreign policy; most recently the mother of five worked in the State Department concentrating on Middle East affairs.

 

In a statement released by Cheney she revealed why she now supports Romney, “Throughout his campaign, ( Mitt Romney) has distinguished himself as a leader who can guide our country with a clear vision for overcoming the threats we face today.”
