Ditto.
He is not electable in 2008 and that should be enough reason for him to go.
Nothing against Cheney. That is just the way it is.
I love the idea of maybe picking up New York in the election.

Voters don't vote for VPs & Giuliani - of anybody - is absolutely THE WORST POSSIBLE VP CANDIDATE. Rule #1 in picking a VP is to find somebody who's willing to stand away from the limelight & due the diligence required behind closed doors & away from the public. Cheney fits this role as well & responsibly as any who've ever served in the office. Giuliani could NEVER take 2nd seat to anybody and would constantly plague the administrations with 2nd opinions and other juxtapositions that would drive the White House press secretary crazy on a daily basis.

This article will give the hardcore conservatives heartburn. I doubt Bush will dump Cheney, but i do think a Bush/rudy or Bush/McCain ticket will be a landscape altering event. Bush may need this if Kerry pick Bayh or Breaux as veep.
Cheney maybe the favorite of the hardcore conservatives, but if Bush is losing the independents, he is toast. There are just not enough conservatives to help in swing states like PA, Ohio, Iowa, Minnesota, Michigan if the independents in these states going against Bush. If Bush loses Ohio and fail to pickup PA, it will be a very long hill climb for him this fall.
The real dream ticket for the independents will be Bush/Powell follow by Bush/Rudy then Bush/McCain. Still think a Bush/McCain play is possible and wow, that sure will get the media going ga ga..
