Liz Cheney Running for President in 2012?
RightPundits ^ | 11.21.09 | Ellie Velinska

Posted on 11/21/2009 12:58:19 PM PST by rface

When Liz Cheney said “Think Cheney 2012″ on the last FOX News Sunday with Chris Wallace – the panel in the studio and lame stream media later assumed she was talking about her father – former VP Dick Cheney. Everybody took the bait – and got caught in… sexism. She did not say “Think Dick Cheney 2012”. It never occurred to the Good Ol’ Boys in the media that Liz Cheney was hinting about a possible run of a Cheney in 2012… like in “Liz Cheney 2012″. Why not? The lady is extremely smart and has a whooping resume that tops Hillary and Sarah if you put them together. Let’s take a look at who Liz Cheney really is .

Education: Bachelor’s degree from Colorado College. Senior thesis: “The Evolution of Presidential War Powers,” in 1988. J.D. degree from the University of Chicago Law School in 1996, having also taken courses in Middle Eastern history at the Oriental Institute.

Seems to me she was looking into the Presidency ever since college.

.

So what is Liz Cheney doing now, you sexists? Is she baking cookies? May be, but she also is running a non-profit 501(c)4 organization, Keep America Safe. The purpose of the group is to support and defend policies of the Bush/Cheney administration which they believe will keep America safe.

Liz Cheney threw a major trial balloon on a major political show on a major network and nobody noticed? Take the challenge you guys! “Think Cheney 2012 – Think Liz!”

Your right, I didn't see that. Do you have links? I saw the latest fox news poll, but didn't see Palin’s name mentioned anywhere in the body.

In a way it's ironic that three of the top GOP favs who have lots of guts and quite frankly balls as big as a basket ball happen to be gals! Where the hell are all the RR male types!!

Liz is very articulate and would be an asset in any administration

Absolutely, you only need to see her destroy the dems she opposes on TV once to realize she has star power and her dads guts not to mention she can think on her feet like few others.

Few seem to realize that Sarah Palin has been through a virtual sh!tstorm of people in both parties trying to destroy her over the past year. She has morphed from a pleasant, nonchalant, beauty from Alaska to a fire eater that now calls the media the lamestream media and can do countless interviews with the toughest of the tough all in a couple of weeks.(Notice she scared Bill O Reilly so bad he dared not interrupt her once!!, The guy was deadly scared of her.)

Shes not the novice she was year ago, not even close.

Personally I would be proud to see her run for potus and would support her 110%.

Link here for the Fox/OD Palin numbers (page 1). Poll was conducted Nov. 17 and 18, after her first TV interviews and coincident with book release.

The Rasmussen numbers for Obama are from today's daily tracking poll. The Palin numbers are in the internals they conducted on Nov. 13 and 14 for a story they did.

From my handle you can see I’m for Palin. But is doesn’t have to be Sarah in 2012. There are many true conservatives who may rise by then. I would prefer Sarah not be burdened with the presidency. The attacks from the left will be deadly. Liz Cheney looks pretty good to me.

I actually thought Sarah relished the O'Reilly interview. No-nonsense and straight-forward with no soap opera stuff. They seemed to have good chemistry. I look forward to more interviews with O'Reilly.

As for your characterizion of Palin a year ago, I do agree that her outlook on the media was from the viewpoint of a novice. She had no idea what was coming. Couple that with her being muzzled and "handled" by the incompetent McCain staff, it was a disaster.

Those days are over. She knows what this book represents, a second chance to define herself to America. Not many politicians get a chance like this.

You can say that again about Liz Cheney — she handles herself extremely well in interviews and doesn’t whine but answers questions direct. I have never seen her saying anything to the effect the media was picking on her. She is like her parents — bring it on!

Liz Cheney? NAH... It doesn't do it for me. I don't really know who is she. Sarah on the other hand represents many things I like in a politician.

Why we love Sarah
