Although President Bush proclaims fierce loyalty to Dick Cheney as his running mate for a second term, questions stubbornly linger about whether the vice president will remain on the Republican ticket.

Cheney's approval ratings have plummeted amid persistent questions about his role in promoting the Iraq war and in handling the Sept. 11 terror attacks. He faces indictment from a French court on charges of bribery, money laundering and misuse of corporate funds while CEO of Halliburton and is also under investigation by the U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission for his role in administering a $180 million slush fund that Halliburton used to pay bribes.

In addition, an analysis by the White House Counsel's Office concludes Cheney violated federal rules on conflict of interest by helping push through a $7 billion no-bid contract for Halliburton's work in Iraq.

"The Democrats have been pretty good at quite a lot of mudslinging over these past years, and you pay a price for it in terms of the polls," Lynne Cheney, the vice president's wife, told CNN yesterday.
