Cheney, the evil Albatros


Why don't they just tell him to stay the hell home, in his hidey-hole.

Healey tries to minimize the glare from Cheney's visit - The Boston Globe:

In Connecticut, a television advertisement features a photo of him arm in arm with Nancy Johnson , a Republican member of Congress battling for reelection. ``Caught red-handed again,' says an ominous voice-over. In New Jersey, Tom Kean , a Republican candidate for US Senate, waited until he left the building to arrive at a fund-raiser.

And late this afternoon, Vice President Dick Cheney, one of the most unpopular figures in American politics, comes to Massachusetts, one of the most heavily Democratic states, where Lieutenant Governor Kerry Healey is running as a moderate Republican for governor.

To the delight of Democrats, the situation has forced Healey to walk a fine line.
