From AudioFile:

Mary Cheney, daughter of Vice President Dick Cheney, never wanted to be in the limelight of the 2000 and 2004 presidential campaigns, but she was a capable senior adviser to her father, and her private life became prime-time news--simply because of her sexual orientation. Mary Cheney speaks out about the highs and lows of life inside the campaigns and her family relationships, as well as providing insightful glimpses of Cheney's private persona and professional competence. Glib, straightforward, and no-nonsense, Cheney tells it like it was, including her feelings toward John Edwards and John Kerry after the debates, her devotion to her family, and her love and respect for Cheney p re--father and candidate.
