Cheney talks up a 2012 Hillary Clinton campaign
Source: Yahoo! News

Hillary Rodham Clinton gained a very unlikely supporter yesterday.

Former Vice President Dick Cheney in an interview with ABC News' Jonathan Karl Wednesday offered glowing praise for the Secretary of State and 2008 presidential candidate, calling her a "pretty formidable individual" and suggested Clinton should challenge Barack Obama in 2012... "Maybe if the Obama record is bad enough--and these days it's not very good, given the shape of the economy--maybe there will be enough ferment in the Democratic Party so that there will be a primary on their side."

But before you go questioning Cheney's political leanings, know that his praise wasn't totally disinterested.

The former vice president conceded that a Clinton-Obama primary would potentially benefit his own party. "I think it might even help the Republicans."

2. Shouldn't make any difference to him
From the looks of him, he'll be in the middle of a long dirt nap by then.

4. Unbelievable
"Maybe if the Obama record is bad enough--and these days it's not very good, given the shape of the economy--maybe there will be enough ferment in the Democratic Party so that there will be a primary on their side."

7. for a guy who started a war on false pretenses, Dickhead is pretty bold but
no one is following his lead anymore since he led us into the bloody, endless war ditch.

Not to mention HE's the main reason we're in this economic mess.
