Vice President Dick Cheney will be in Atlanta on Monday to support Sen. Saxby Chambliss. Cheney's visit will be a quick in-and-out, with no time for the press or the public. He is headlining a luncheon in honor of Chambliss at a private home in Atlanta.
The Georgia senator is running for re-election next year. He has been one of the most loyal friends of the Bush administration on Capitol Hill. Chambliss helped craft immigration reform legislation that Bush wanted. But, after being booed at the state GOP convention, Chambliss distanced himself from the measure. His job-approval rating has dropped, according to polls by Strategic Vision.
At least one Democrat want Chambliss' seat: former Atlanta television reporter Dale Cardwell.
