JUST WHAT WE NEED… Obamacare Lobbyist Maria Cino Is Running For RNC Chairmanship
Posted by Jim Hoft on Tuesday, December 7, 2010, 12:09 PM
Is this really what the Republican Party needs going into 2012?
(Politico)
Maria Cino, the former Deputy Secretary of the United States Department of Transportation under President George W. Bush announced her intention of running for the chairmanship of the Republican National Committee in November. She has a distinguished career as a politician in the Republican Party. Maria Cino also worked as an Obamacare lobbyist for Pfizer, the world’s largest research-based pharmaceutical company since 2009. Pfizer CEO Jeffrey kindler was a staunch supporter of Obamacare. According to the Wall Street Jounal,
No one pushed harder (for Obamacare) than Mr. Kindler. The CEO made no fewer than five trips to the White House last year… He wrote an op-ed with the SEIU’s Mr. Stern demanding reform. He pressed the industry’s $150 million ad campaign promoting ObamaCare, rolled out with liberal activist groups.
Since 2009 Marian Cino worked as a lobbyist for this pro-Obamacare company. Now she wants to be the chair of the Republican National Committee?
Does anyone else have a problem with this?
Dan Riehl has the goods on Cino at Big Government including her $1,000 donation to liberal Mike Castle in the Delaware primary.

Sounds like chair of the DNC would be more appropriate for her.

RNC is slated for destruction long term. It is an institution that has outlived its purpose.

I can see THIRD party from my window. You had better believe that if the Rep. Party is so stupid — or should I say, determined to undermine the Tea Party effect — as to elect Cino as RNC chair, then I will exert maximum effort to see them consigned to the dustbin of history.
Republican Party, you are skating on VERY thin ice.

Sounds like a mole, doesn’t she?

Picric commented:
I can only hope that who ever they choose to be the chair will call out snide comments or will bring a hammer when asked stupid questions.

The national GOP seems to have learned absolutely nothing. 2012 is going to be interesting.
Homer commented:
I think her candidacy is over before it even starts. Really, like she has a prayer?

This jogs my memory. I’m haviing a vague recollection here. Please refresh my memory.
Wasn’t it that ambitious and unscrupulous Maria creature and a bunch of other bitchy women affiliated with the RNC who tried to undermine Steele and to sabotage his nomination to be the head of the RNC, oh, as I recall, about 5 or 6 years ago??? And as I vaguelly recall, also, they kept trying to viciously undermine him even after he was appointed head of the RNC. I am sure that I read that or heard that somewhere, with emphasis on the extent of that Maria creature’s sneakiness, viciousness and treachery.
