| Dick Cheney for President! |
| 2005-07-28 |
| From The Hill, via Kathryn Jean Lopez at National Review. EFL & emphasis added. If Vice President Cheney is indeed a âserious darkhorseâ candidate for president in 2008, as Washington Post reporter Bob Woodward recently suggested, he probably wonât want to enlist legendary âThe day I say Dick Cheney is going to run for president, Iâll kill myself,â she told The Hill. . . . I'll probably do time in Purgatory for saying this, but: RUN, CHENEY, RUN! |

| #11 I also like AEs plan but I think Cheney should have done it already to give Rice a few years in office. The problem is that old Eddie Murphy joke that would have every blackman in the country taking shots at the Prez to get a black into the top spot. Even if caught they'd be heros in prison. Funny routine but there is a hint of truth to it. Fear of a Cheney Presidency on the other hand means Bush is somewhat safe from assassination attempts because "they" rightfully fear Cheney more. Sort of like Qual in a different sort of way. |

| #10 He has a bad heart, and lacks a likeable personality. A Cheney presidency isn't in the cards. |

| #9 Its a brilliant strategy AE, but unfortunately the Reps are indeed old stick in the muds. Had the Dems been smart enough to allow Clinton to be impeached, Al Gore most likely would have been President for 9/11. See, they actually do somethings right, even though they don't mean to. |

| #8 Look for Cheney to step aside for health reasons after the 2006 elections to be replaced by Vice-President Condoleeza Rice |

| #6 He should run as a distraction. Let the bile be hurled his way, let people call helen on her promise. Then Cheney can step aside before the real election season due to health issues. |

| #4 Poor little DC troll lady who fancies herself a journalist should retire or just die and give others a chance to do what she cannot. Whatever skill and ethics she had as a journalist were lost a long time ago. She's a nasty partisan hack who is not intelligent, articulate, insightful, funny or talented in any perceivable manner. I don't care if she a WH press fixture either. Rip her out with a crowbar like unrepairable goods and off to the landfill in a dumpster! |

| #3 Helen, what makes you think you'll still be alive in 2008, you ugly old hag? |

| #2 She'll do it like Baldwin now lives in Spain. LLL are talk and show. They don't hold up their end of the contracts. |
