Not good ol' Dick... Liz. From the Weekly Standard:
FRED THOMPSON IS adding more big-name policy talent as his testing-the-waters committee continues to grow into a real presidential campaign. Among the new additions: Mark Esper, national security adviser to former Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist; Joel Shin, a top policy staffer on Bush-Cheney 2000; and Elizabeth Cheney, a former top official in the State Department's Near East and South Asia department.
Ms. Cheney, of course, is the eldest daughter of the sitting vice president. She's also not the first executive-branch relative to sign on with Mr. Thompson. George P. Bush, Jeb's son, has already signed onto a fundraising email for the former Tennessee senator.
