Ok get your bets down early. I have a few thought:
1. I am guessing that the whole numbers me George Allen for example is 12/1.
2. I am shocked how low they have Jeb Bush.
3. Jeb is even with Arnold who is not even eligible.
4. I am surprised Frist has the shortest odds. I am similarly surprised someone as old a McCain has such short odds.

Jeb's numbers aren't surprising--the idea is to avoid a Bush dynasty. Jeb won't be running for President for a long time, if ever.
Arnold shouldn't be on the list.
I personally think Giuliani will be the nominee. Not sure who his VP will be, but he'll likely keep most of Bush's cabinet, assuming they want to stay on for another four years. I can't see Rice on the ticket, great as that would be.

I'll take Romney. Who'd be with him is tougher.

Keyes/Rice should clock-in at about 1,000,000,000:1

Name recognition. All is meaningless at this point.
Can we finish this Presidential campaign first?
To: JLS
Sen. John McCain will never be the nominee of the GOP. He has pissed off far too much of the Republican Base with his suck up to the media posturing against President Bush. Biting the hand that feeds you is a totally stupid career move by a politican, yet that is what McCain does every time he goes one of the Talking Head shows.

Yeah, I know.

Frist. No.
Laura. No. She has not political experience.
Arnold. No. Not without a Constitutional change. And let us hope that NEVER happens.
Jeb. No. 2 Bush Presidencies have been enough.
McCain. No. Too much of a loose cannon. And his age will be against him.
Lindsey Graham. No. He is too much of a whiney boy type, lacks Presidential appearance.
Cheney. Probably not. His health would be a huge issue. Out of the list, he'd be my #1 preference, but I don't see him running.
Hagel. No. He is already opposing GWB on the Iraqi War. Not good for a member of one's own party to attack the leader during an election year. Hagel has shot himself in the foot.
The Republican will probably be facing Hillary Clinton [assuming Kerry doesn't pull out a win this year].

Bill First - maybe
John McCain - too old
Rudolph Guiliani - too New York
George Pataki - who?
Chuck Hagel - ???
Mitt Romney - DEFINITELY
Bill Owens - yawn.
Tom Ridge - nope
George Allen - boooooring
Norm Coleman - not a chance
Lindsey Graham - no
Sam Brownback - NO
Arnold Schwarzenegger - if only he weren't born in europe
Dick Cheney - nice, but not in this universe
Jeb Bush - possible
Laura Bush - never
They left out Candi Rice!!! I give her #1 odds, in fact.

Giuliani will be the death of the GOP. The same with any pro-abortion candidate. Millions and millions of voters will see that as a signal that neither party will do anything about the court and abortion. It will be trouble. The best you could hope for is a third party that will permanently wound the GOP. After a few years the GOP will get less votes than the Whigs.
Giuliani will be the ultimate Rodham weapon.
