Maddow: Romney on board with the legacy of Dick Cheney

“It is not surprising that the Republican Party would not be all that enthused with about the legacy of George W. Bush, but what do you make of the fact that they all are on board with the legacy of Dick Cheney?” Maddow wondered.

“Seventeen of Mitt Romney’s twenty-four foreign policy advisers are Bush-Cheney guys,” she added. “Even as Romney is shunning the endorsement and any joint appearances with the former President of the United States, George W. Bush, he is proudly publicizing and doing fundraisers with Dick Cheney.”

The GOP has to much work to do if they are to demonstrate that Mitt Romney isn't a RINO. This helps, and I imagine that the Republican rank-and-file are just eating it up. There is no more cold-blooded, heartless a Republican than Cheney. His blessing means a lot. I wonder what it cost Mitt?

Cheney will have a great influence on a Mitt Romney administration.
