Hmmmm, I was just thinking, GSC....
What if this gives Bush an opening to send Dick Cheney to CIA? Cheney knows where the bodies are buried and he's a bastard when he has to be. Rudy doesn't want CIA, he wants the Senate, then the WH. You know who gets Cheney's job, don't you?
And putting Dick Cheney in front of the Senate wouldn't be a bad thing at all. Cheney speaks with authority and knows how to handle the egos in the Senate.
Or, Cheney's retirement could be coming soon, as well.
Be Seeing You,

I was thinking the same thing. Cheney at CIA, and Rudy as VP candidate would make the Rats pucker.

I'm not at all sure that, post-9/11, Rudy wants to be one of 100 in the Senate. The WH-- absolutely he wants it.
I can't imagine that there are going to be two high-profile exits in June or July. The public knock on Cheney is that he's too secretive (in a bad way) and that he used the CIA for political purposes. Moving him to CIA doesn't get you any benefit politically. Moving him to SCOTUS or State would be a different thing altogether.
