I went to a lecture by Bob Woodward about two years ago and he said Cheney would run.
Anyway, that candidacy would guarantee a Democratic landslide. He is rather despised.
Also, he produced a gay daughter. Thus, he or his wife has the gay gene, taught his daughter to be gay or were bad parents such that she went gay. Then he did not denounce her and thatl would lead the God Squad of the GOP to hate him also.
Thus, he should just replace his batteries, move to Dhubai and count his money.
