LARAMIE, Wyo. - With his old House district at risk, Vice President
Dick Cheney told voters on Saturday to reject Democratic "resignation and defeatism" against terrorists.


"We live in a two-party state," Cheney said. "But I've got a feeling Wyoming Democrats don't find much in common with Democratic leaders like
Howard Dean, Ted Kennedy,John Kerry and Nancy Pelosi."

Cheney's visit to this heavily Republican region reflected the high stakes for the White House. Democrats need to pick up 15 seats to win the House in Tuesday's elections.

Surprisingly, Wyoming's sole seat is among those that Democrats make win.

Since Cheney won it in 1978, kicking off a six-term run in the House, no Democrat has held the seat. This year, Democrat Gary Trauner is running well against incumbent Rep. Barbara Cubin (news, bio, voting record).
