Despite some reports claiming that Vice President Dick Cheney would NOT appear at the Republican convention, Cheney's office just confirmed that he WILL attend and will speak.
Said Cheney's spokeswoman, Megan Mitchell: "The Vice President looks forward to participating in the Republican National Convention and continuing to work for the election of Sen. McCain and other Republican candidates in the coming months."
Mitchell says details are still being worked out regarding which night Cheney will speak.
*** UPDATE *** McCain's campaign has confirmed that Cheney will speak on the Monday of the convention, the same day that President Bush will speak.
