New Bush Cabinet Position

[jj]

* I think Cheney is going to ...retire... for medical reasons. Powell may be his replacement. It's just a gut feeling and I won't swear by it. I'd like that position to go to Condi but I'm not sure the GOP is brave enough to brave it. Bush might be but they'll talk him out of it. Plus, I'm not certain she'd even want it (yet).

If she didn't want it, she'd prove that she was smart enough to consider for the job.

I contend, as I have on numerous occasions, that you'd have to be nuts to want the job.

I would suggest that we'd be more likely, though, to see Ashcroft or Rumsfeld as VP if Cheney has to leave.

I'm not sure Powell would be offered/take it.

Hee hee! I'd like to claim this prediction.

US Secretary of State Colin Powell has said he is resigning, his department has confirmed.

He will step down from his post once President Bush has chosen a successor, officials were quoted as saying.
