Just about anyone would be better than Hillary. Even McCain (who I despise) and Guiliani. Unfortunately, Bush did not leave us a natural successor.
Maybe we'll get lucky and Cheney will elect to retire early, opening an opportunity for Bush to pick someone who has a good chance of beating Hillary.
Giuliani is pro-abortion and McCain is wishy-washy. I've looked at the list of potential candidates and a lot of them are moderate and wishy-washy on issues such as abortion and gay marriage. I'm not sure who we're going to pick. But we've got to find someone.
You know it might not be up to President Bush to pick the successor. I believe that George Bush was hand picked by God Himself and if we ask Him to and are faithful to Him, He will give us someone just as great.
Let's hook up Cheney with a couple of car batteries and nominate him. Hell, I'd vote for his brain in a jar if that's what it took.
One does not have to be Vice President to be a successor.
