Former Vice President Dick Cheney, who said brains in the Beltway would pop on the release of his new book, “In My Time,” caused a slight kerfuffle when in an interview with ABC’s Jonathan Karl he encouraged present Secretary Of State Hillary Clinton to primary President Barack Obama.
“I think she’s probably the most competent person they’ve
got in their– in their cabinet,” said Mr. Cheney. “And– frankly, I thought she
was gonna win the nomination last time around. Maybe if– the Obama record is
bad enough– and these days it’s not very good, given the shape of the economy,
maybe there will be enough ferment– in the Democratic Party so that there will
be a primary on their side.”
So far, Mrs. Clinton’s husband has not taken the bait.
