announcement to be made at 4 pm EST?
Edited on Wed Sep-17-03 02:20 PM by KCDem
Anyone know about this? A politico friend of mine who manages some repug websites says that the repug fundraising machine is going bonkers this morning due to some "expected announcement" at 4 pm EST, something having to do with the Repug ticket. Any guesses? Is Cheney a goner?

On edit: I'd had "is Cheney a boner"... you know how I really feel about him!

5. I'm not sure.
My friend made some comment that I would either be thrilled or else scared at the announcement... that's why I think it might be no more Cheney--hate the fucker, so I'd be thrilled that he's gone, but since I also think he could be a hindrance to their election, esp. if he loses his appeal and is forced to submit documents to public scrutiny. KWIM?

4. Probably not - more likely
some kind of terror related thing to wipe Clark out of a lead story.

But fun to contemplate Cheney leaving - but they can't or else all the "eecutive privelege" secrecy rationalizations come tumbling down.
