Extraordinarily Bright Leaders--Episode One

Announcer: Hello, and welcome to Extraordinarily Bright Leaders. Today's episode: "Dick Cheney--On the Ball, As Ever." (Theme music, fade)

(From teleconference transcript released by the White House):

QUESTION: Yes. Mr. Vice President, thank you for joining us today. With Lieberman in Connecticut losing, Joe Schwarz in Michigan, Cynthia McKinney in Georgia, is there an anti-incumbent wave this year? If so, which party does it benefit?

CHENEY: Well, I guess, I’d be hard put to think of what the wave is, or what parallel you can find between Joe Lieberman, Joe Schwarz and Cynthia McKinney.

QUESTION: Well, they’re all incumbents and they all lost.


Announcer: Be sure to join us for the next installment of Extraordinarily Bright Leaders. (Theme music, fade)
