As this year plays out, there's going to be an interesting dynamic with a few Republicans: how to begin positioning themselves for the 2008 Republican Presidential Primary.
There are those whose path is inextricably tied to the current resident of the White House, such as Powell and Jeb Bush, if they want to run.
But there are those who aren't tied to the current White House, and if the general election is tight, will probably see this as an opportunity to both differentiate themselves from the Bushies AND let the air out of possible candidacies depending on the heir apparent mode (yes, you Jeb Bush).
So, for something different to think about, who are those Republicans that might actually say something important against Bush this year as part of a 2008 strategy?
I can think of two:
John McCain
Chuck Hagel
but there may be more. Any ideas, and about any particular issue?
