Not going to happen. Bush / Cheney will finish out the term.
What is more of an interesting possibility is Clinton vs Rice in the next election. It is possible.

BAWWWWWWWW!!! HAHAHAHAHAHA! COUGH... SPIT COFFEE ON SCREEN.....HAHAHAHAHAH! CHOKE! (FALL OFF CHAIR........ GET BACK UP)... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!! PEE PANTS!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!!!!!!
None. It's his aide, Libby. Cheney is untouchable at this point in their term. But we know it was him that started it all.
Rice would be as bad as Bush is. We should let a couple terrorists in just to clear out half of this administration. Get a fresh start.
A woman as VP would be good, but it will only happen I think if someone strong from House or Senate, and better yet was in the armed forces. That's a hard combo to find. But then, we had Quale so VP doesn't always matter on the ticket.

all I got to say is - If hillary is pres after 2009.... I'm take up part time residence in canada.... LOL, whoever wins Iowa wins the presidency, I think it will be hard for a dem to win there after bush/cheney, unless they run with a republican VP. lol, like john mccain... LOL.
hopefully she changes her mind in three years and decides to run, though currently she says she doesnt.
another benefit is while she is most extremely educated and qualified on foreign affairs, she has never held an elected office. therefore she is somewhat, "untainted". at least, i hope whomever takes the next presidential seat keeps her on board, because she is truly valuable.

with all the people that supposedly hate bush and he hasnt been shot, i dont think we have to worry about someone as saavy as rice pissing people off. the idiots that she loses because she is a black/female will be more than made up for by the amount of votes she gains from the blacks.
but i must say i keep thinking about c. rock's comment about being the first black president. having a hispanic vice president to discourage assasination (rofl)

I think the reason colin powell didnt run for president was because he was black... in 2000, colin powell would have been a shoe-in for president.
Bush jr wasnt a "sure thing" in 2000
