For one thing Cheney knows too much, and loyalty is a two-way street. For another, I think Bush feels that a lot of voter anger is directed at Cheney. Since Cheney is probably headed off into the sunset with his big Halliburton windfall, he doesn't care about his own personal unpopularity, so in a sense can shield Bush.

Cheney isn't going anywhere. If he suddenly left now, it would look like an admission that was wrong about all the stuff he's been saying from the "git". Stay focused. It's only people who up for re-election who might--might!--go somewhere else. I can't wait to vote. I have to agree with the Shark. Cheney isn’t going anywhere.

I can’t wait to vote.

Doing it a week before elections would just make BushCo(tm) look weak. Darth Cheney isn’t going anywere. There is no October suprise, other than Republican pollsters wondering how low can they go.

However, I really don't think it is going to happen. It would involve an admission of error on the part of W and I really don't think he is cut out to do that. Rummy and Cheney pull more weight than his own wife. Interesting, it might even make me rethink my senate vote. However, I really don’t think it is going to happen.
