I think that will be critical. If Rudy does win the nomination and picks a dynamic, young conservative for his VP, I suspect much will be forgiven.
Secondly, the VP slot is not a springboard to the Presidency this time around. Again, if Cheney were 15 years younger and fully healthy, we wouldn't be having this conversation.

I agree. The VP is a critical choice. I've suggested Duncan Hunter a few times. He's someone I agree with, and after 4-8 years, the voters will be familiar with him. From what I've read, Hunter has real possibilities, he just needs to pick out nicer suits :/
