I was wondering why Laura Bush was touring the Mideast last week. It was a little out of character for her, she had been hiding in the background until now. I couldn't help but wonder if the GOP had a dark-horse, secret weapon up their sleeve for 2008-- a pretty little teacher from Texas with a 75% approval rating.
I thought it would be really funny, because the Democrats couldn't say that she had no political experience outside of sleeping with the president, and that the GOP was just using her as a way for the president to skirt the term limit and get an additional eight years. Not if they were running Hillary, they couldn't.
Now it seems that the feelers are out. In a
Reuters article today, both the Cheneys have indicated that it was on their minds, which means it is probably being considered.
