if OPEC succeeds in abandoning the dollar, then this could drive its value even lower which will have even more devastating effects on the economy. This could mean that Cheney's entire energy and war plans are looking like a complete failure, with no more political support for starting new wars. Bush may need an excuse to resign Cheney and try to switch course under internal Republican pressure. Look at how far we have come so far with all the resignations - no more Rove, Rumsfeld or Gonzales.
