Republicans to Bush: Dump Cheney And/Or Condi-Kins

Update: My bad. I misread this. However, to replace Cheney with Condi-kins is so far past ludicrous it shouldn't even be on the same planet Earth as the rest of us! My God! What an absolutely, irrefutably atrocious idea that is!

From The Times of London:

REPUBLICANS are urging President George W Bush to dump Dick Cheney as vice-president and replace him with Condoleezza Rice if he is serious about presenting a new face to the jaded American public.

They believe that only the sacrifice of one or more of the big beasts of the jungle, such as Cheney or Donald Rumsfeld, the defence secretary, will convince voters that Bush understands the need for a fresh start.

The jittery Republicans claim Bush’s mini-White House reshuffle last week will do nothing to forestall the threat of losing control of Congress in the November mid-term elections.
The article goes on to quote GOP nutcase Fred Barnes that Cheney is a stand-up guy who would be willing to take the fall for Bush. But a) I'm not so sure and b) I think the American people see Bush as at least as much of a problem as Duck! It's Dick! or Condi.
