Kristol: ‘Dick Cheney, Most Valuable Republican.’
http://thinkprogress.org/2009/05/15/kristol-cheney/

The real question any Republican strategist should ask himself is this: What will Republican chances be in 2012 if voters don’t remember the Bush administration–however problematic in other areas–as successful in defending the country after 9/11? To give this issue away would be to accept a post-Herbert-Hoover-like-fate for today’s GOP. That’s why Republicans should listen carefully when Cheney gives a speech this week in which he’ll lay out the case for the surveillance, detention, and interrogation policies of the Bush administration in the war against terror.

Kristol concludes, “Dick Cheney probably won’t be the glamour quarterback of the Republican comeback. But he’s proving to be a heck of a middle linebacker.”

4. They loves them some "manly" football references
the problem is that Obama is a basketball player. The don't even understand that they are now playing a different game.
