Many Pubs floating notion to dump Cheney and go with someone else
Apparently, they feel Cheney is the albatross around Chimps neck so not wanting to lose, they go for what they think is a compromise. Dump Dick and all will be well. Indeed, they eat their own.

How expedient,

How shallow.

1. I always thought
Cheney's heart will give him trouble just about the time the Democrats meet in Boston.


I hope someone is book marking my predictions. You never know, I could be Nostradamus

2. Perhaps GOP is grooming Zell Miller to take his spot after the convention
??

Miller is to speak either right before or right after Cheney at the puke convention. Here is the scenario I see.

The gop leaves NYC with Cheney on the ticket, but oh my, he has another heart attack right after it, and voila', since the country is so divided by the nasty democrats and their bu$h bashing, the gop executive committee decides they will just put Zell Miller on the ticket to 'unify' the country.

They must have some massive dirt on Zell that they are blackmailing him, considering all the shilling he does for them, and they can then always use it again to get him to resign next year and appoint another republican. That of course would assume they had control of the Senate where they could grease the skids to get their next boy in there.

5. Never happen ... this is just their "McCain" moment
They can't control that crazy man ... they are just using him like a side show...."Sing happy Zell Sing...."

And he happily performs.... sad, so sad .... He'll figure it out ... but too late tho'

8. I hope so
Maybe their strategy is that the only way to make Bush look smart is to put a bigger moron than him on the ticket. Zell would fit that bill.

3. For months I have been convinced that Cheney won't be on the ticket...
And, If *'s numbers stay down like they have been, start looking for Rudy Guiliani to suddenly appear as veep candidate.

6. I'm under the impression Cheney thinks himself as President
Unless he is indicted soon, I don't see it happening.

7. It might just be in the works, the Cheney Indictment....
He is over the Top in too many things... especially the Haliburton thingy.
