"Some fresh faces can emerge in four years"
Let's hope they are CONSERVATIVE faces. I can't hold my nose for Rudy or McCain.....
If it's true that Evangelical and Catholics carried the day, it would be very difficult to get consensus on pro-choice Giuliani. The War on Terror could also have a much different look to it, which may make his 9/11 leadership less of a story than it would be today.
Santorum would be wonderful, but politically-speaking, their needs to be a continued movement rightward within the GOP to make it happen. Bush appeals to both ends of the GOP spectrum without coming across as dispassionate.
For now, I think I will revel in our victory...
I suspect Giuliani will easily win the nomination, and McCain will be dead before 2008 rolls around. The real decision is the VP. Since Giuliani is a yankee, he will need to pick a conservative southener, probably a governor.
