Former Vice President Dick Cheney is stepping into the suddenly feverish House speaker's race to endorse the leading candidate, House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.), as "a good man and a strong leader."
McCarthy has a challenge from the right, and Cheney's statement should help McCarthy with some of the hardliners, in part by giving them conservative cover to support him.

He is also pro amnesty.
Too bad because this guy with the big mouth is a jerk.
Cheney is part of the GOPe though.
Dick Chaney lost his mind years ago. Fool.
And he’s going to get blackmailed if he becomes Speaker.
This has got to be BS.
If you love him so much, Dick, why don’t you take him on a nice little hunting trip?

I wish Cheney and the rest of the Bush Admin
Would stay retired !
Total amnestY countryclub RINO.
Thank you for your input, Cheney. Now go away. We disagree profoundly.
Why???...Dick.... you of all people should know that America needs it’s firebreathers , now more than ever . No more confused harvey milktoast types .
come on Dick ...
I’m a bit surprised VP Cheney, whom I greatly admire, does not see that more of the same ol’, same ol’ won’t cut it after 8 years of anarchy. McCarthy seems same ol’, same ol’ in spades.
If that is so....Cheney will be making a big mistake.
Cheney’s still alive?! He’s got about as much credibility as Obama.
Cheney is part of the GOPe though.
Yes, he is. It’s really too bad.
I just lost respect for Dick Cheney. I used to admire him considerably.
He’s 46% at Conservativereview. Fail grade
McCarthy would be a step back. He is more liberal than Boehner.
I. cannot. believe. this.
Why is that?
I do not let Cheney sway my opinion at all. At one time I thought he was a died in the wool conservative but changed my opinion as I grew less and less liking the Bushes with their adopted son Bill Clinton and their ties to Saudi oil Sheiks.
