Republicans vs. the Constitution
So we're not the only ones to think this way.

I thought that by now the White House would have decided that the
strains of the job on his health were too much for Mr. Cheney to
continue as vice president, that he would then have stepped down
for valid health reasons, and the Republicans would have plugged
into the position a viable 2008 presidential candidate.
I can think of several reasons why they didn’t do that (I will give
them credit for enough intelligence to at least realize they had a
problem). First, Mr. Bush felt he couldn’t live without Mr. Cheney
around. Second -- and I suspect this is probably the truth of the
matter -- Mr. Cheney didn’t want to step down, and Mr. Bush decided
he didn’t care what happened to the Republican Party after he was
out of the White House.
There is also the late-at-night, eerie concern that Mr. Bush has in
his head some sort of scenario where, for reasons of national
security -- real or drummed-up -- the 2008 elections will have to
be postponed and he will get to stay on.
My suspicions [are based on] the feeling I have that, given their
operating style NOW, this bunch will NOT leave the White House
EASILY in 2009.
Nice to see this mainstreamed at last.
Because when the going gets tough, the tough get foily.
Because, really, when do monarchs ever voluntarily surrender power?
