she should really hold another elected position first

She has never held an elected position, all of her service has been apointment based.

This is, in my opinion, her greatest weakness in terms of high elected office. The only Presidents I can recall who never previously held elected office were Grant and Eisenhower.

Can George Bush be Vice-President in 2008?

Yes, if it's George H. W. Bush (#41).

The only Presidents who never previously held elected office were Taylor, Grant, Taft, Hoover and Eisenhower. I correct myself.

George Allen - US Senator from Virginia.

Son of George Allen, Sr. - NFL coach of the Rams and Redskins.

He and I partied together back in 1980 when he ran for Albemarle Councilman (Charlottesville area). He won by 4 votes. He is an up and coming star in the Republican Party.

Who do we have out in the governorships right now?

Governor Bill Ownens of Colorado
Governor Mark Sanford of South Carolina
and Governor Tim Pawlenty of Minnesota
Are all good conservative governors.

Condi vs. Hillary would be very entertaining, but highly unlikely.
No Ridge, Rudy (as you suggest) NY Gov., McCain is, unfortunately, most likely.
My fav, Frist, has already said he's back to Medicine in '06.
Jeb says no.
Also, Bill Owens here in Colorado, now seems less likely.
No Arnold ammendment.

I'm supporting Don Rumsfeld -- the best man to keep the War on Terror moving forward.

Mark Racicot, Rudy, Fred Thompson, and Condi would be my picks. I don't think Jeb could make it. The country might not go for another Bush that soon, but later, yes.

I second the nomination of Bill Owens. Need to learn more about him, but the basics:

-he's a governor
-from a western state
-knows domestic policy
-conservative policy groups love him
-catholic
-no beltway battle scars

Jeb's a great guy, but there would be serious backlash at another Bush. He finishes elected career in the Senate, like his grandfather.
