here's the article...big on speculation, little on substantiation, but cheney's poll numbers have been hurt (imo, by the constant erroneous halliburton associations) Will Giuliani replace Cheney in ’04? Does Rudy Giuliani have his sights set on the vice-presidency? By Jeannette Walls with Ashley Pearson MSNBC Updated: 2:56 a.m. ET Jan. 27, 2004Will there be a Bush/Giuliani ticket in '04? advertisement A well-placed source says that the president will “most likely” drop Dick Cheney from his re-election ticket and his first choice for a replacement is former New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani. “The issue of Cheney’s health will probably be given as the reason,” says the insider. “There’s a short list of possible replacements, and Rudy is at the top of the list.” The source adds that the selection of the former New York mayor may be overridden by Bush advisors from the far right. “Giuliani has been pro-choice, pro-gay rights, and is pretty liberal on some other social issues, but the thinking is that he might broaden Bush’s appeal.” If, however, Giuliani gets bumped from the ticket, says the source, “expect him to get a prime assignment in Washington as an consolation prize.” Bush’s rep didn’t return calls, and a spokeswoman for Giuliani said, “Rudy Giuliani has been out in Iowa and New Hampshire talking about the incredible accomplishments of Vice President Dick Cheney with George Bush and working very hard to get them both re-elected.” msnbc.msn.com
