I don't know. But I am preparing a doctored bumper sticker to read "BUSH/CHENEY '08...

Just to drive the kool-aid drinkers over the edge.

By the way we already have 2 voters on this thread

How many do we need to get FEC money? I hope it's not too many more than 2.

Frist. It's why he has the early face time on every channel. He's also a son of the solid South.

That's fine too.

We do NOT have to settle for RINOs. Rudy will make a fine replacement for Hillary in the Senate.

To crush the last elements of the krinton sway and begin the reconstruction, a fairly moderate set of 'R' will be needed. My vote would be for any variation of Rice and Guliani. McCain would be the kiss of death for huge swathes of the very coalition we just witnessed bringing home the bacon.

I agree, it's an interesting point that Cheney could step down mid-term. He has no further ambitions, and reportedly was hesitant to run even in 2000. I can see Cheney and Bush deciding to let him retire at some point, if his health gets bad enough. That also has some political appeal simply because it creates an opportunity to groom an '08 candidate.

If this happens, my guess is he'll pick Tom Ridge as VP, then pick Giuliani to replace Ridge as homeland security director. That rewards Giuliani for his work, and puts him in a position appropriate for his experience.

Bush clearly likes Ridge given the confidence he placed in him. That job was high profile - the first director of a new agency whose founding purpose was to stop terror attacks. If they were incompetent it would have had serious consequences.

Bush convinced Ridge to leave his governorship to take a politically risky job. If a terrorist attack hits us at some point, Ridge's career is likely finished. That's more reason for me to think he's in line to be rewarded.

The public would accept his qualifications. He was a successful governor, then succeeded as homeland security director. That makes him very credible as a national security candidate. The Congress would have a hard time rejecting him, and the voters would elect him in '08.

I guess we need a campaign slogan. How about:

"If you don't vote for us, you have to put up with Hillary in the White House again."

Rudy. Even though he is not a social conservative, he would attract substantial independent and democrat votes. I can't imagine him not winning the state of New York.

Thanks for your site! It spread like wildfire among the conservative students at our high school. With you, kerrysucks.com and Protest Warrior, they get the information they need to challenge their liberal teachers.

I believe in the Constitution when a Vice-President steps down the replacement has to come from the Senate.. That is why Ford was in when Agnew Resigned. If Bush wants to pick Tom Ridge was Vp, Tom Ridge has to be from the Senate..

Guiliani realizes that he has two strikes against him: the first is that he is a Northeasterner. No Northeasterner has won the White House since Kennedy; no Northeastern Republican has been President since Coolidge, which really was a long time ago. The second is his social liberalism. He can't "un-Yankee" himself, but he can shed his social liberalism. Guiliani, like Bush 41, could have a "St. Paul" moment and renounce his former pro-abortion stance.
