6. Won't happen
If they do and by chance, Bush wins, they give up a senate seat to a Dem, since McCain's replacement would be appointed by a Democratic governor.

Besides, McCain is running for his senate seat this year. Not that stopped Lieberman, though. After the whole Jack Ryan fiasco in Illinois, they need to hold on to whatever seat they have.

If Cheney is replaced, I could see Giuliani or even one of Bush's original choices, Tom (terror alert) Ridge. They might have some problems with their more moderate stances, but could use it to soften the ticket and make it more appealing to the undecided voters.
