    A quote from the speech she gave in front of a whooping 10 or so supporters after that curb stomping she took.

    "The great and original champion of our party, Abraham Lincoln, was defeated in elections for the Senate and the House before he won the most important election of all," Cheney told a crowd of supporters in Jackson, Wyoming. "Lincoln ultimately prevailed, he saved our union, and he defined our obligation as Americans for all of history."

    Is this broad naive enough to think she has a shot at the WH? News flash Liz! Your political career is over. Hey Democrats… Give us Tulsi Gabbard and you can take this filthy rich career/family politician in return. She’s a perfect match for the moron who occupies the WH soiling his diaper day in and day out.

    You aren't going to talk her out of running.

    I would vote for Gabbard. I think she would be an ideal VP choice for a Republican candidate. It would be a throwback to the old days.

    She, like her father, will eventually fade into irrelevancy unless the View or CNN gives her a job with a stipulation that she must go on an anti-Trump rant every session.

    I don't care if she wins.

    Her running has Trumpers scared to death. I can't wait to see those debates.

    Are you even coherent this morning? This woman got blown out by nearly 40 points last night…. and you are on here clamoring that she’s going to make a huge challenge to the Republican nominee for President?

    She's got all that cash to use. It would be best used supporting viable candidates in the GOP.

    Did i claim she would make a huge challenge? All i want is her on the debate stage, which doesn't take much.

    She lost in Wyoming. People lose city council races with more votes than the winner got last night.

    Trump probably will refuse to debate anyone in the Primaries.
    He starts with a massive lead, and would have too much to lose by debating any GOP Primary Opponents...

    She would never come close to winning enough to get on a debate stage.

    Um, pretty much everyone is on the primary debate stage. Have you just started paying attention to politics?

    Talk about someone with an unchained ego... But this is what democrats think is their answer to Trump... Laughable.

    When Liz goes back to Wyoming, folks shun her. Perhaps this is why she doesn't actually live there anymore. She reminds me of Hillary in that regard, just "assuming" residency because she thought she could dupe the residents of that state... Wow, a hilldog reference.

    Pocohantus was already taken....

    It does? Is that what you fantasize about? That doesn't sound like a good use of time...

    Dems want an anti-Trump Republican and will settle for nothing less. Why give them the satisfaction of that? Democrats offer/give us nothing.

    Of course not...
    That is why debates are irrelevant...

    What is happening in the GOP right now is the best thing I could have wished for as a Liberal.

    It's going way beyond my expectations.

    Trump still has enough of a grip on his party to alienate his base from Cheney, an elected official who has voted for his policies 96% of the time.

    The GOP has become the party of conspiracy theories, the Big Lie and autocracy.

    The moderates in this country will never give you a meaningful voice in Washington.

    Prepare yourself for many years of despair.

    Debates are only irrelevant to people who don't care about the issues.

    If you are voting for a person because you believe they are your savior, why would you care about obtaining more information?

    I'm just basing it on the number of threads Trumpers are creating to trash her.

    Are you under the impression they’re going to allow her to run as a republican?

    She will meet whatever requirements they have set up.

    Keep thinking that and maybe it’ll come true. You and I live in the same country, friend. If this country burns, the both of us do, not just me.
