RATS don't want Cheney to resign. Suppose Bush were to appoint Rice as the new VP? She'd be a shoo-in for 2008.

Dare I say it, but if Cheney does resign, that would mean another Senate confirmation hearing. Can you imagine that circus?

What committee hears it? It wouldn't be Judiciary since it's not about a judge. What happened when Agnew resigned and when Rockefeller died?

And what would be the chances of the Democrats stonewalling and playing hardball about "mainstream" because they're afraid of Bush's VP nomination's chances in 2008? Would they game the system and deny Bush his VP choice because they're afraid of its impact on 2008?

Maybe it's a bit premature to speculate... I'm sure Mrs. Whittington would appreciate our prayers for her husband's recovery.
