It goes down to every precinct in America and to every Republican voter in this nation. For four years, they have been pretending that George W Bush was the president but all along, they knew that Dick Cheney was in charge. Dubya was nothing but a cheerleader. He didn't make any decisions on his own and no decisions were made without the approval of Dick Cheney.
With a wink and a nod, Republicans of all stripes knew this to be a fact and they remained silent, letting America believe that George Jr was in charge. It was a conspiracy of silence because they believed in Cheney's radical conservative policies but they didn't have to admit it. They got to have their cake and eat it too. So forget about Cheney getting off the ticket. If anybody goes, it will be the Bush, Jr.
Every Republican in America knows who is in charge. They smile and pat each other on the back at their country club meetings. They love Cheney and they love the fact that they can support his radical and elitist policies without being held accountable.
