Lynne Cheney Mocks Hillary Clinton’s ‘Dead-Broke’ Comments (Washington Free Beacon)

Former Second Lady Lynne Cheney took a shot at former First Lady Hillary Clinton’s tone-deaf comments about her family’s wealth Monday during an interview with Politico‘s Mike Allen.

Asked about the political life at an event along with her husband Dick Cheney and daughter Liz, Cheney said the enthusiasm level in her family for it varied.

“When Dick was asked to be vice president, he thought that was a great idea,” she said. “I was not so sure. You know, give up your job, give up your house and move. We weren’t dead broke, excuse me.”
