I don't for a second believe that Bush is going to drop Cheney from the ticket, primarily because he said Cheney would be his runningmate. I am thinking nothing short of Cheney removing his name from the ticket will result in anything but a Bush/Cheney ticket for 2004. Regardless, I came across this site BushRice.org and thought it was interesting. I also signed the petition. I think Rice is not only capable and a good potential choice for VP, but it would say a lot about the Republican party and conservatism in general... It might even put to rest the liberal lies that conservatives are bigoted hate mongers.
