Here's some interesting speculation regarding Bush's running mate options.

As much as I respect Dick Cheney, I think it might be a good move to cut him loose. I don't think he's done anything wrong, in fact, he is surely one of the main players behind this administration's policies, which taken as a whole have been effective. However, the Halliburton taint, though largely based on fantasy, is unavoidable, and he's just not the type of guy that people get excited about. I think either Condi Rice or Rudy Julianni would be slam dunk selections. Anyone who thinks Tom Ridge or Bill Frist would be good choices is probably a liberal.
