I agree; I don't see much positive press out there for Cheney, especially since his heroism on 9/11 was so clear. He's much more experienced than Edwards, and his toughness will be an asset.
Cheney is an excellent VP!
He is tough, and extraordinary when it comes to running a tight ship.
He has not had any health problems in the last 3 years.
Now, an Excellent scenario to play out in the short future, would be if Cheney resigned due to whatever reasons, and Condoleeza Rice is placed as new VP. Then she can run for President in 2008. Or JEB Bush runs for President in 2008, and Condi is on the ticket as VP...
JEB/RICE 2008... sounds good to me!
