It's important to break away from the trend Cheney was starting toward, "Here's why we have to give up more rights and freedoms and cede that power to an unaccountable government..."

Once that formula was tested in the electorate without an immediate cloud of fear nearby, it went down to defeat very decisively. It could have fallen in 2004 if roughly 60K votes in Ohio had gone the other way. But by 2006, the jig was up. Obama just finished them off.
