Potential VP replacements

Here’s hoping it’s a false alarm, but Dick Cheney is in the hospital for shortness of breath.

Who are potential vice presidential nominees should Cheney resign for health reasons?

A second-term president who needs a vice president? Sounds like the plot of The Contender.

I would love to see a woman in the role. What a way for Bush to burnish his legacy.

It’d be a good job for Rice.

What’s Ashcroft up to these days?

Since I started this thread apparently one minute after a similar one by Quartz, and his includes the additional interesting question about the electoral college, I suggest we close this one and proceed in his thread.
