Dick Cheney hiding in his bunker this election?

In the months before this election got into full swing, Dick Cheney had plenty to say about Obama's presidency, the Democrats in general, and public policy at every level of government.

But throughout this election, he hasn't made a peep. Why hasn't he been out stumping for his favorite GOP candidates? Could it be that he was asked to stay away?

The media never miss a chance to chime in that Obama is a drag on this year's slate of Dem candidates. But what about the most outspoken member of the previous administration?
