Bill First 5/2 John McCain 7/2 Rudolph Guiliani 7/2 George Pataki 9/2 Chuck Hagel 6 Mitt Romney 6 Bill Owens 8 Tom Ridge 8 George Allen 12 Norm Coleman 12 Lindsey Graham 14 Sam Brownback 14 Arnold Schwarzenegger 66 Dick Cheney 66 Jeb Bush 66 Laura Bush 100
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.
My wife already had a few 'Keyes/Rice 2008' bumper stickers made up.
I'd throw up consistenly if McCain or Hagel get anywhere near the nomination ..
consistenly=consistently
I'd like to see Jeb Bush to run for president....
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.
lets win this one first. its far from over.
Keyes/Rice should clock-in at about 1,000,000,000:1
But wouldn't it be a hoot watching the "racially sensitive" democrats eat themselves alive?
I LOVE HIM!!....hes one of my heros... he made the best speech I have ever heard at the Pentagon Memorial service after 9-11... it was a thing of beauty
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].
UH OH!!...I read that wrong, Im so sorry....I thought you had Rumsfeld
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.
Rice/Bush?
I agree with Lady Jag: Romney
Rice/Guiliani
