DON'T BLAME ME...I VOTED FOR KODOS: John Hawkins over at Right Wing News surveyed a number of us right of center bloggers to find out who we wanted to see (and not see) running for the Republicans in 2008. The results are now up. Most desired? Condi Rice. Least desired? John McCain.

So who did I vote for?

Most desired: Condoleeza Rice, Bill Frist, Bill Owens, George Allen and Mitt Romney

I'm not sure about Romney but he interests me so I figured I'd include him on the list. Condi Rice because she's my secret wife, and Frist, Owens and Allen because they're decent conservatives. Frankly, out of that list I'd like to see Owens the candidate with Condi taking VP. If that were reversed, though, I wouldn't be disappointed.

Least desired: Rudy Giuliani, George Pataki, Newt Gingrich, Rick Santorum and Dick Cheney.

Rudy Giuliani and George Pataki because they were too liberal. Newt Gingrich because aside from his ideas I don't think he would do the GOP much of a service. Rick Santorum I don't mind but he's very polarizing. Dick Cheney? He'd be too old.

See the results here.
