• Dick Cheney: Picking Sarah Palin for VP Was ‘A Mistake’

[quote] Dick Cheney has some advice for Mitt Romney on choosing a running mate: Don’t pick another Sarah Palin. In his first interview since receiving a heart transplant in March, Cheney told ABC News, that John McCain’s decision to pick Palin as his running mate in 2008 was “a mistake” — one that it is important from Romney not to repeat. It’s subject on which Cheney has some unique experience. He helped Presidents Gerald Ford and George W. Bush lead their vice presidential searches and, of course, served as vice president for eight years. He’s also privately offered some advice to both Romney and Beth Myers, who is leading Romney’s search for a runningmate, on the process. Cheney would not comment on what he told Romney and Myers, but he was harsh in his assessment of McCain’s decision to pick Palin. “That one,” Cheney said, “I don’t think was well handled.” “The test to get on that small list has to be, ‘Is this person capable of being president of the United States?’” Cheney believes Sarah Palin failed that test. “I like Governor Palin. I’ve met her. I know her. She – attractive candidate. But based on her background, she’d only been governor for, what, two years. I don’t think she passed that test…of being ready to take over. And I think that was a mistake.” More of the exclusive interview with Cheney, which was conducted in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, will air Monday on Good Morning America, World News with Diane Sawyer and Nightline.[/quote] [url]http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/politics/2012/07/dick-cheney-picking-sarah-palin-for-vp-was-a-mistake/[/url] Poor Sarah I want to give her a hug
No running mate will change the fact that he is an awful presidential candidate.
Dick Cheney was a mistake.
I'm hoping for a crazy Tea Partier.
Orly Taitz for VP 2012.

[QUOTE=Emperor Scorpious II;36990626]Romney Bachman 2012 :v:[/QUOTE] Hehehe, that campaign would sink like a torpedoed houseboat.
Romney and Bachmann differ quite a bit on many issues, actually.
Romney Paul 2012, that way we can destroy the careers of TWO people who oughtn't be in government
it didn't work for mccain why would cheney's dumbass think it'd work for him. Palin is the soul reason Mccain didn't get elected.
I'm hoping for Condoleeza Rice, she's one of the only republicans that I can see in office. It would get rid of the race card for one, not to mention she's intelligent and experienced.
This statement is akin to "Blowing your head off with a 12-gauge is an oopsy-daisie."

She's always just sorta there yet I know nothing about her.

Yeah, Paul was one of the few people in the Republican nominee race who actually looked intelligent and not a total wacko, although I disagree with him on his policies, etcetera.
