Charniele Herring: Cuccinelli would be a good governor for Santorum, not Virginia

AFP

cuccinelli-header2Democratic Party of Virginia Chair Charniele Herring released the following statement on Friday responding to former U.S. Sen. Rick Santorum’s endorsement of Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli for governor:

“Rick Santorum doesn’t endorse candidates because he agrees with their jobs plan. He endorses candidates who share his divisive ideological preoccupation with attacking women’s health care rights and putting his own personal political agenda ahead of what’s best for the state he serves.

“It may not be surprising that Rick Santorum wants Ken Cuccinelli to be our next Governor, but  it is disappointing that instead of focusing on jobs and the economy, Cuccinelli continues to run on issues that have nothing to do with making life better for Virginia families.”
