Sounds to me like the Cheney's are conflitcted and would rather sweep their daughter's identity into the closet. I thought what Kerry had to say was right on the mark, not mean spirited and the name he referred to (Cheney's daughter) was immaterial. He just answered the question that was asked.

I find it very interesting that the Bush ticket, on every major election that he has been involved in, has claimed no affiliation with underhand attacks on their opponent (Ann Richards, John McCain, and now Kerry). If you doubt this, watch the frontline piece that was shown on PBS about Bush and Kerry. I might feel differently about Kerry's use of Cheney's daughter, but not after how this administration has behaved.
