He had a heart attack something like 4 years ago, IIRC. This is nothing new.

If he *does* step down, though, I'd love to see Condi replace him and set herself up for the 2008 elections.

He's quite a fortunate man. Four heart attacks? Ouch! Of course, running from coast to coast campaigning for your boss can't be good for such a condition.

Cheney, 63, has had a cold and aides said his cardiologist, Dr. Jonathan Reiner, advised him to visit George Washington University Hospital out of an abundance of caution.

Reiner later issued a statement ruling out "any cardiac cause" of Cheney's symptoms and also ruled out pneumonia and lung problems.

Anyone who has observed Cheney over the last couple of years should know hes one tough cookie. If he was having cardiac problems He would biatch slap those heart attacks into submission before he would let them oust him from his VP duties. :P

I maintain that he actually died four years ago and what we see as Dick Cheney is really an animatron that has been running the country.

I didn't think he was gonna die, I wondered if this is the opening salvo in a string of events that will lead to Cheney's resignation.

Maybe they'll take advantage of his poor health to place the next candidate in the office so he can run as an incumbant.
Vice President Giuliani maybe? Powell...?

Can you just hear Hillary choke when she hears Rudy is the new VP?!

That, above all else, could convince any atheist that there is a God. :P

there wouldn't be much change. Use your x ray vision guys. Bush is the real Vice president. Bush Senior is the real president. heh!

to use an analogy somewhat

starwars episode I

Darth maul = bush
palpatine = daddy bush

we have two presidents running the country.

cool!
