Dick Cheney's daughter gets blasted by the GOP for trying to run for Senate

[EmperorScorpious]

[quote]Washington (CNN) – Republican Rep. Cynthia Lummis of Wyoming ripped Liz Cheney's decision to challenge Sen. Mike Enzi for his Senate seat next year in Wyoming as "bad form" and predicted she would lose in the GOP primary next year.

"I don't know that anybody can out-conservative Mike Enzi," Lummis told reporters outside the House chamber on Tuesday. She also compared her to Hillary Clinton when she ran for senator in New York.

The congresswoman, Wyoming's at-large representative, admitted Cheney had the upper hand in raising money, but said that wouldn't matter. "She will outraise him by factors of 10 or more, and he will still win because Wyoming is grassroots, retail campaigning."

Cheney announced her 2014 campaign Monday in a YouTube video, the same day Enzi announced his intent to run for re-election.

Lummis admitted she considered running for the Senate herself if Enzi, the state's senior senator, decided to retire.

"I think she's skipping everyone over," Lummis said.[/quote]

It's because she's Lesbian. Or is that his other daughter?

Because she's in it for pop politics. She's no grass roots politician, her campaign isn't "genuine".

Lummis is a bitch, got a chance to talk to here a couple years ago on a school trip to DC, she talks down to fucking everybody.

Not that I want Liz in office here, as much as I don't want Mike Enzi.

That and the fact that Enzi was apparently a long-time friend of Cheney's. Shows how he treats his friends, let's be glad he wasn't shot.

I think her biggest advantage in politics is that her father was the president.

There's a joke in there that you are not getting. [sp]He's saying than Dick Cheney did more and made more decisions than George Bush during his two terms and pretty much ran the country for him. It's a commonly made joke.[/sp]

Okay that was a joke I was not aware of.
