I reckon they will put Frist forward, briancw.
The two so-called front-runners at the mo are moderates Giuliani and McCain but theres no way either will survive the GOP Primaries.
The backwoods men who make up their base will see to that.
Meanwhile, Santorum and Romney will be political has-beens by '08, Jeb Bush says he's not running which is probably wise considering the long overdue backlash he and his brother faced over the Schiavo case, so unless some previously non-existent savior emerges Frist will probably be nominated by default.
Uh, Allen.
