September 20, 2007

Not that she ever liked him in the first place (and who does, really?), but Sen.

“Vice President Cheney came up to see the Republicans yesterday,” Clinton said at the fundraiser. “You can always tell when the Republicans are getting restless, because the Vice President’s motorcade pulls into the Capitol, and Darth Vader emerges.”

I’m not exactly a big Hillary fan, but it’s nice to know that sometimes in Washington they see what the rest of us see.
