A healthy debate for Cheney, Rangel
WASHINGTON -- To hear Rep. Charles Rangel (D-Harlem) and Vice 
President Dick Cheney tell it, neither is fit for office.
In a heated exchange through the news media, each has cast doubt on 
the other's physical ability to fulfill his public duties.
Rangel, 74, landed the first blow in an interview on NY1 Friday.

said, "He should never have stepped up in the first place. ... He's 
too old for the job and doesn't have the experience.
