How about this scenario? Cheney -
suffers a severe heart attack on the eve of the election. (in an effort to elicit sympathy from voters) Could this pull in enough votes to win?

2. That might seal it for them.
I'd be too busy jumping for joy to vote.

Actually, they would probably lose votes. No one wants an invalid on deck.
