The Cheney Family on Hillary Clinton

From a Newsmax story, we have the following quotes:
[VP Dick] Cheney, asked in an interview on CNN whether Clinton would make a good president, replied, "No, I don't."

Why not? "Because she's a Democrat. I don't agree with her philosophically and from a policy standpoint."
I think that's one of my fundamental issues with Senator Clinton. But the Newsmax article also referenced a quote by Liz Cheney, the Vice President's daughter. That story can actually be found at The Union Leader. I like this quote in particular:
Anyone who has watched her remarkable trajectory can have no doubt that she'll do whatever it takes to win the Presidency. I wish she felt the same way about the war.

In fairness, Clinton, with her proposal for arbitrary caps on troop levels and hemming and hawing about her vote for the war resolution, has company on both sides of the aisle. Sen. Joseph Lieberman is the only national Democrat showing any courage on this issue. We Republicans -- with help from senators such as Chuck Hagel -- seem ready to race the Democrats to the bottom.
She then goes on to list some considerations for those who are wanting to cut and run.

This is what we here at Anybody Buy Hillary are about. We have nothing against the Senator personally. We just feel that she does not represent the direction we should take for this country.
