Cheney endorses Hutchison ... good or bad?
AP: Cheney to campaign for Hutchison in Texas
AUSTIN (AP) — Former Vice President Dick Cheney will throw his support behind U.S. Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison’s campaign for Texas governor at an event in Houston next month, Hutchison’s campaign said Wednesday.
Hutchison spokeswoman Jennifer Baker said details were still being worked out, but Cheney is scheduled to campaign with the senator on Nov. 17.
Cheney’s support is the highest profile endorsement Hutchison has gotten so far in her bid to unseat Gov. Rick Perry in the March Republican primary. Support from Cheney, who is popular with many conservative activists, could help Hutchison shore up her right flank.

Watchdog, that is the whole point of the question.
Interesting how all the Bush friends in Midland and elsewhere appear to be supporting Hutchison.
Also interesting how some people, who when faced with the question of choosing our next leader, would pick Palin over Cheney.
