After a Washington Post story suggesting that Vice President Dick Cheney’s office is involved in the Plame-CIA investigation, rumors are flying around Washington that Cheney might step aside – and be replaced by Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice.
That would in essence set up Rice as the "incumbent" for the next election. A move now to elevate Condoleezza to the vice president’s position would better prime her for a run against Hillary in 2008.
Keep in mind this is a rumor and it's Washington. Could anyone possibly plan all this?
