I think I just threw up a little bit

1. sure, they COULD

but why the hell WOULD they?

I can't imagine (without SERIOUS Diebolding) that Cheney'd have any chance.

[Historic NY]

26. Ah but if he become a "hero" and takes Bush hunting............

that could change the course of everything.

[BillZBubb]

2. Please, oh please let it be so!

Cheney would be the easiest Repug to beat, by far. His negatives are so high he could never get more than 45% of even a Diebolded vote. Plus, he's already achieved living joke status.

[Canuckistanian]

3. Riiight...

Nominate someone who had a 29% approval rating BEFORE the shooting incident.

Works for me.

[kenny blankenship]

4. please God make it so!

Crashcart is the most despised Rape-o still above ground. Even Hillary might have a chance against him.

[AzDar]

5. Campaign slogan: Dick Cheney..Straight Shooter. n/t

[Canuckistanian]

11. He Won't Keep His Powder Dry!

That's for sure.

[Nickster]

14. Bwwaaahhhaaaa

[FSogol]

6. Go on, I double dog dare you.

Anyone beats Cheney.

[xiamiam]

7. wtf is he smoking?

[chelsea0011]

8. 19% or something approval rating? Nominate away!

[npincus]

9. now we know Woodward is irrelevant

[txindy]

12. He's just angling for an invitation to Darth's next hunting trip.

I hope he gets one, too. :evilgrin:

[txindy]

10. I hope they do nominate him.

What's his approval rate these days? Wasn't it in the low 20s before he SHOT A 78 YEAR OLD MAN IN THE FACE? I can only imagine how low it's sunk now.

Hard to steal an election when 80+% of the country votes against you.

[converted_democrat]

13. Nope.. It won't happen.. They're going to go with Rice...

And then whoever bitches about legitimate issues with her "leadership," and what a fucking liar she is, will be called racists just like they are doing over the port deal.. Wait and see.. I'd bet good money on it.. I used to be a puke, and they are so predictable..

[Stephanie]

15. They will not go with Rice, I guarantee you.

Condi's got a secret.

[converted_democrat]

That "secret" hasn't stopped Frist or Sessions from their positions, so

why would it stop her..

[Stephanie]

23. because she's a woman

and because she's single

[converted_democrat]

25. I will concede that Sessions and Frist have covered it better, but by

the same token it's not all that hard to spin.. She's "married" to her job.. She can't serve a husband and the United States.. They ONLY way that they would go with Dick is if there are higher powers setting us up for a Bush, Clinton, Bush, Clinton.. McCain is out polling Hillary, the ONLY way they would run a Dick (who has a 29% approval rating) is if it is a set up for a Bush, Clinton, Bush, Clinton.. Which is too scary to even think about because it means that our democracy is actually gone.

[elehhhhna]

29. HUH? Do they think Bush is their "husba", too?

[converted_democrat]

31. That's not what Condi's secret is...n/t

[elehhhhna]

43. Is karen her real "husba"?

[converted_democrat]

45. I don't know if it's Karen, but you get the drift..n/t

[elehhhhna]

21. What if he holds a gun to their heads?

hardeeharhar I crack myself up sometimes.

[converted_democrat]

28. It took me a second to get it, but when I did...

:rofl:

[elehhhhna]

30. headline: Cheney Aims for Presidency

[converted_democrat]

33. You're on a roll today.. Funny stuff...

:rofl:

[elehhhhna]

44. awwwwwww, shoot.

[BlueManDude]

24. It's gonna be Newt - you heard it here first.

[grytpype]

22. No way, not Rice.

Not even for VP. The white racists who make up 90% of the Repug base will never vote for a black woman (or man). And they know it.

[converted_democrat]

27. That's what they said about Ohio, but Blackwell is still in the game..n/t

[Burried News]

16. Wouldn't surprise me in the least. Sooooeee

Can never get enoughah im can you sugar? Can you feeell the luuuve?

[DetroitProle]

17. I endore dead-eye Dick

for the Republican ticket.

We could run anybody we wanted and still win! I can just see CNN now..."Dick Cheney only garnered ten percent of the popular vote and his home state of Wyoming in the electoral college. Experts are calling this a historic shift in the electorate. A Democratic Congress and presidency..."

[grytpype]

18. Eight more years of President Fudd!!!!

Sounds like a great idea. Excuse me while I convert all my dollars into euros, yen, and renminbi.

[grytpype]

20. Cheney: He's got your back.

And you can trust him because he'll only shoot a man in the face. That's the kind of guy he is.

[Nimrod2005]

19. I hope they do for two reasons: 1) to punish the country even more

for bing so stupid to select Bush in the first place, and

2) to confirm what I already know, that we lost our country longtime ago, and there is no going back!!!

[applegrove]

32. Or even worse. Rove could take Bush off his meds - force him to quit

.... and Cheney would be President. And run in 2008.

[ThatsMyBarack]

34. Unless....

....he dies from a heart attack before then--oh, wait, he doesn't have one, does he??

[fujiyama]

35. That would be great

Someone with a 29% approval rating...Sure would be easier than going against McCain.

Hey I wouldn't even worry if Dems nominated Hillary against Cheney...Graanted, I still would prefer someone else...

[theHandpuppet]

36. Slogan: Deadeye Dick in '08 -- for a double barrell of laughs!

They really can't be THAT stupid, can they?

[Tom Joad]

37. LOL

[WI_DEM]

38. Let's hope they do!

He would be the easiest Republican to beat--McCain would be the toughest.

[gasperc]

39. or nominate an never married single black woman

or Cuban GOP senator to win over latino votes

or a has-been movie star that isn't a natural born citizen

[spanone]

40. Not with a 29% approval rating they won't. Cheney is death.

[rpgamerd00d]

41. We should PRAY TO GOD they run Cheney...

... talk about someone that has no chance!
OMFG!

All we'd have to do to win is repeat "Lesbian Daughter" over and over and over and over and over.....

"Lesbian Daughter"
"Lesbian Daughter"
"Lesbian Daughter"
"Lesbian Daughter"
"Lesbian Daughter"
"Lesbian Daughter"
"Lesbian Daughter"
"Lesbian Daughter"

Dems win 95% of vote, 100% of electoral college.

[Rocknrule]

46. You're assuming the elections will be fair

or that they will even take place

[Tom Joad]

42. Woodward says "you're going to think i am crazy". Well, now that you

mention it, many of us do think you are crazy old fool. A scribe to the powerful, who writes for the establishment on bended knee. It could have been much better bob.
