Big mistake. Collin Powell would give us a chance.
Welcome to Free Republic.
Silence, newbie. You know not of what you speak.
It would take about 35 seconds for the media to start bleating that a dumping of Cheney is an act of complete desperation and an admission by Bush that his first term had been a failure.
Newbie. Colin Powell doesn't want to be president, and he would alienate the base.
a chance at what ?
When I read his book 10 years ago; and the work he did in Gulf War I, I'd have agreed with you. Today, I'd say that Powell is a lightweight.
"Big mistake. Collin Powell would give us a chance."
So you think we have no chance with Dick as VP? We will win big time, no problem.
Conservative Republicans like VP Cheney -- in fact some of us wanted him to run for President in 1996. We are going to win with him on the ticket and the only people wanting him off are those that want Bush-Cheney '04 to lose.
BTW, you spelled Secretary of State Colin Powell's name wrong and since you are new, don't think using the word "we" to want to dump VP Cheney is appropriate on FR.
Sure glad that we are not as dumb as the RATs who send people here think we are!
And as far as "giving "us" a chance",a chance for what..losing BIG TIME?
So,I guess you are working for the Kerry team and are on the wrong forum.This site wants to get President Bush re-elected and dumping Cheney is NOT the way to do that..
Oh, and welcome to FR.
Bigtime bump for the best VP in memory.
