I think these rumors are over blown. I just don't see Bush jettisoning Cheney. The bump from the capture of Sadaam won't last much longer. Getting rid of your VP is a sign of weakness and would be interpreted as such by the Dems and their media allies.

But If Dean does get the nomination or if it is all but certain that he will win it- Bush might take such a chance as he sure to crush such a reactionary die hard leftist in a general election. There are ways of political marginalizing people within the Bush administration short of getting rid of them. Baker might end up the de facto VP- but I doubt highly Bush would remove Cheney officially.

National security adviser Condoleezza Rice took a rare central role in a domestic debate within the White House and helped persuade President Bush to publicly condemn race-conscious admissions policies at the University of Michigan, administration officials said yesterday.

The officials said Rice, in a series of lengthy one-on-one meetings with Bush, drew on her experience as provost at Stanford University to help convince him that favoring minorities was not an effective way of improving diversity on college campuses.

Rice, the first female national security adviser, told Bush that she worked to increase the number of African American faculty members at Stanford but that she was "absolutely opposed to quotas," a senior administration official said. A Stanford official said that under Rice, who served from 1993 to 1999 and was the university's first nonwhite provost, the number of black faculty members increased from 36 to 44.
