Default Next Secretary of Defense

If Don Rumsfeld retires Paul Wolfowitz should take his place, right?

Wolfowitz won't get it given the criticism of him being a spearhead for the Iraq war.

It would likely be one of the three of Condi Rice, John Danforth (former Senator and current UN ambassador), or John McCain.

[/ QUOTE ]That's freakin' scary. Condi Rice is smart, but not military. And McCain is a left-wing nutjob, regardless of which party he belongs to. I don't know that much about Danforth?

What about Tommy Franks? I don't think McCain would want to work for Bush.

Danforth is a former Senator from Missouri and an Episcopal clergyman. Much more moderate than the current attorney general, though. A good man.

He won't take it for fear it will mess with his chances in '08.
