After asking former Vice President Dick Cheney and his daughter Liz if either of them were planning to endorse any of the current crop of GOP candidates running for president in 2012, CNN's Candy Crowley asks Liz Cheney if she is planning to run for a seat in either the United States Senate or House of Representatives. Cheney's answer didn't exactly warm my heart.

CHENEY: We'll see what happens. Right now I'm focused on hosting a sixth grade pot luck dinner at my house and chaperoning field trips. But it's something that I have a lot of respect for people who do and I may take a look at it down the road.

CROWLEY: But not this time around?

CHENEY: No, I'm not planning to run in 2012.

So I assume this means we get to look forward to Cheney running Congress in 2014. Oh joy.
