that Cheney brought to the WH to forward the Republican ideology, as well as the corporate agenda re: bringing to bear all his years in politics and business with an ultimate goal of a One World Order of Corporate Fascism i.e.,PNAC, as well as the bullying tactics to gain physical and political ground for oil/gas geo-political borders all over the globe no matter the cost in money and lives.
No doubt Palin is a pig with lipstick, (see cartoon below) and a willing whore for the GOP and their global corporate interests, but she is evil only in the way she is willing to allow herself to be transformed and puppeted by the Repug party.
Palin as evil and dangerous?
Yes.
Palin having the control over our nation that Cheney has wielded?
Nope.
Others will be behind the scenes running that show, and would suspect that Cheney and Rove will be involved at the highest level.
...just my 2 cents...
