Cheney's Guy in the Pentagon

Not sure if others have noted this yet, but the Pentagon official who strafed Hillary Clinton yesterday--Under Secretary Eric Edelman--is a former aide to Dick Cheney. I interviewed him in Ankara once when he was U.S. Ambassador to Turkey and his office was festooned with Cheney photos. I wonder what the SecDEf, who is not a Cheneyite, thinks about all this.
