No kidding

McCain unlikely to use Cheney in Campaign.  Jeez, you think?

But then again, there is a certain ultra-conservative element to the GOP that thinks Cheney is some kind of hero.  Coincidently, those are the very same Republicans who think McCain is a pansy-assed, tree-hugging, bunny-loving, cat-petting, God-haytin' Liberal who will just give our country away to the terrorist Ayrabs.

Sadly, McCain needs those voters. 

I expect we'll be seeing Dick again, if only behind the scenes.  Of course, that's exactly what Dick Cheney is good at, isn't it? Pulling the strings from behind the scenes?

    I think we didn't get the memo the conservatives sent out: it appears to be National Conservative "No Shit, Really?" Week. As further evinced by this:

    No? Really, Mr. President?

    It may be too early to write off the Veep, however. I'm not sure if McCain will allow Cheney to help him pick a running mate, but if he does... we all know how that works.

    Well, yes, Michelle, there may actually be a need for that particular skill set in this election ;)

    Actually, if shooting were a part of the campaign trail it would really change the race for everyone - victory to the team with the best sharpshooters! I like it. It'd sure cut down on political waste.

    So you're advocating sort of a "Survival of the Fitest" campaign policy? I like it. Applied correctly it could lead to rapid, directed evolution of politicians into a higher lifeform, one that's maybe even intelligent.

    Well, the democrats would evolve, the republicans don't believe in evolution and would therefor remain a more primitive form of life, maybe even going extinct...

    Wishful thinking, Jim. If there's one thing republicans are good at, it's survival.
