Your soon-to-be former vice president has emerged to answer questions today. I can't imagine Cheney really cares what people think about his legacy -- or George Bush's, for that matter.
The Blago-inspired Senate drama is getting some more attention with an appearance by Roland Burris.
Besides the drama, the Senate is going to be the battleground over the Obama agenda. The Majority Leader, Harry Reid, and the Minority Leader, Mitch McConnell, will both have a chance to share their strategies for the next session. Stephanopoulos should make McConnell explain why he's willing to play politics when the U.S. economy is in such a precarious state.
And, George H.W. Bush? Haven't we had enough of these people?
Here's the lineup:
ABC's "This Week" — Senate appointee and former Illinois Attorney General Roland Burris, D-Ill.; Sens. Dick Durbin, D-Ill., and Mitch McConnell, R-Ky.
