If the guy Cheney shot dies, and a grand jury indicts him, he will have to resign.
Who should GWB replace him with?
Conventional wisdom is to relace him with a strong candidate for the 2008 election, giving him a leg up over the competition (especially the Dems).
However, depending on what happens over the next two years, a VP/Presidential candidate would be associated with any failures the administration may face over the next 2 years and possibly suffer from it - so, perhaps, someone that won;t run for President might be a good idea.
My vote is Condi Rice -- certainly qualified, and certainly on the short list in any event. Naturally, there are other political benefits from this as well, she being a black woman and all...
