Who will be Bush's VP nominee?

[Merlin]

Given that Cheyney is fly-paper for trouble (energy task force, bribes from Halliburton, Plame affair, lies about Hussein-alQaeda link, lies about WMDs, and on and on...), and could even face indictment in the near future, there's at least a reasonable chance he will become a victim of a suddenly discovered health problem, clearing the slate (sort of) for his Shrubness.

1. They asked him to pick the VP and he picked himself.

He is his own boss. The day he goes down is the day the whole show goes down.

12. John McCain . . .

good for Bush because he gains from McCain's perceived credibility and honesty . . . good for McCain because he becomes president when BushCo takes their fall . . . win/win . . .

13. if the monkey can say rummy is doing a superb job, you KNOW he's

gonna stick with cheney. bad health...yeah, but that sure didn't stop them in 2000. cheney will just hole himself up in that nifty little bunker of his for the next 4 yrs again.

15. 76% of you (so far) are dead WRONG ! The answer is Powell.

I'm telling you, we've got to start thinking about this as a real possibility. The odds are very strong Scooter will be indicted and Cheyney will be an unindicted co-conspirator. That could happen within the next week.

Think about it.

16. No...But what about Zell Miller

Powell has consistently been reluctant to accept anything of the sort. I would say Condi Rice would be more likely, But certainly a moderate Repuke like McCain would have appeal to Bush...Here's a thought for you, how about Zell Miller!
