McCain On Cheney In His Cabinet: "Hell, Yeah."

Politico:

He's a highly effective fundraiser in an election cycle in which Republicans are starved for cash, a hero to the wing of the party that views John McCain with the most suspicion. He has four decades of campaign experience, ranging from a short stint running Gerald Ford's election bid in 1976 to two successful races on the presidential ticket....

Going further, McCain even told Hayes in comments heretofore unpublished that he'd consider Cheney for an administration post. Asked whether he'd be interested in Cheney had the vice president not already have served under Bush for two terms, McCain said: "I don't know if I would want him as vice president. He and I have the same strengths. But to serve in other capacities? Hell, yeah."

What is this character up to? It's like he is trying to lose the election?! He and the Repubs can't be this stupid, can they? Or has Bush dug the hole so deep, they just accept it is probably a lost cause for this election cycle?

McCain is digging his own grave.

Holy Batshit, McNuts is soooooooooooo out there!

McInsane should ask Darth to head up his VP search committee?

[lisakaz2]

Will the MSM report this?

[SaskiaStars]

HA! HA! HA! You just keep talking Grumpy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow - what a ride.

[Biracial1]

Yet still he will win states who will vote out of 'bitterness'. Feminist, are you listening? Thank God I don't have anyone in my immediate family still in the military or draft age.

Keep talking. Just keep on talking.

How has Cheney's job performance as VP, and his near-zero likability factor merited him doing anything but sitting out his days in an orange jumpsuit in the Federal Lockup?

I agree,... just let McCain continue talking and continue digging his hole deeper and deeper.

Who better than to control the jaw activation button.

I too hope to see Cheney serve in some way during the next administration, but I was thinking more along the lines of serving a prison term. If we can arrange that, then I also say "Hell, yeah!"

This is exactly why Grampy McShame cannot be elected. The neocon footprint of Chainy must be obliterated.

[drumz]

Another nail in the coffin of electability.

[coinier]

he'll be in jail!

[IRepTheKing]

If this isn't a "WHOLE-nutha" reason not to vote for McCain, I don't know what is.

[MikeMidCity]

McCain would welcome a war criminal?
