Poll question: Will Cheney still be the VP candidate in 2004? |
|
I've heard rumors that he might not be viable. He wouldn't be able to run in 2008 if Bush manages to pull off a win in November.

3. I know there's been talk about replacing Cheney |
|
with Rudy Guiliani but unless they add some position for Evil Genius I can't imagine Cheney stepping aside.

4. yes, political suicide to dump him now |
|
Too close to the election and while spaceshrub is in a free fall back to earth.
If it was seen he was admitting ANOTHER failure by dumping the halliwhore.

He and Gore did get the most votes, right?

Guiliani is a pro-choice, pro-civil unions, pro-gun control adulterer. Adding him to the ticket would be a total disaster as far as the Republican base is concerned.

Cheney wields huge power, without having to take the brunt of the media spotlight. Bush is just a punching bag.
You can take that to the bank.
