Since no Republican in their right mind would take the job, Quinn may be the only person in Washington who could advocate replacing Cheney and thus making her the prime candidate to join an Administration with a 27% approval rating pushing a wildly unpopular immigration bill, prosecuting a war becoming even unpalatable to leading Republicans and generally tearing the GOP apart.

And Fred Thompson as a replacement for The Dark Lord? Why should Thompson tie all of those millstones around his neck when he’s running away from Bush - as will most of the other candidates - just as fast as he can. It would be suicide.

I say if Quinn thinks Cheney should be replaced, she should offer herself as an alternative. That’s because, there will be no one else.
