Poll question: Predict: Who'll be Bush's VP candidate?
I've included James Woolsey, just in case the powers that be feel they need to replace Cheney with another PNAC'er. And who better than one who appears on eight television programs a day to spread his cheerful neo-con propaganda?

So vote--and remember, the powers that be are WATCHING!

2. still Cheney
As much as they might prefer someone else, changing VPs would be a sign that something's wrong. It might be a wake-up call for people who aren't paying attention.

3. According to my medical statistical calculations..
..Cheney only has a 46% chance of surviving until November.
They'll have to replace the senile stooge sooner or later.

10. I agree with you. The shadow doesn't dispose of the substance,
no matter how corrupt the substance is.

8. Bill Frist.
He already announced his intention to leave the senate in 2006. I think this may have been the plan since he was elevated to majority leader. Frist is very smart, comes across well to ordinary people, who are mostly in awe of his status as a Doctor. He will be very difficult to campaign against.

We should be prepared. Giuliani would be tough as a novelty candidate, and he may well be the choice if they find themselves in a very deep hole.

I could also see a Cheney ticket, with a resignation a year or so in if they win, then the appointment of a Frist or some other evildoer.

Cheney moves to State.

Colin Powell gets to spend the rest of his life realizing that he wrecked a great career with thes idiots.

13. Cheney
He loves being president and ordering Bush around. Unless he dies from a heart attack, I assume that Cheney will be on the ticket.

14. Not Cheney
He doesn't offer them hope in 2008. They need someone who does. I voted for Rudy.

15. Cheney
NO way will this bastard let go of his power. The minute he's no longer VP all kinds of criminal charges will be leveled since the Neo Fascist cabal won't be there to shield him.

16. I look for them to
run either asscroft or ridge as #two. I think both think they can eventually be #one.
