#12 EKG is normal. Speculation now is that it's the cold he caught on a pheasant hunting trip.

Anybody ever been hunting that hasn't caught a cold?

#18 Glad Cheney's OK. If the worst had happened, the House Speaker doesn't become VP, but is next in line for the Presidency until a new VP is appointed by the President and confirmed by both houses of Congress. An appointment between now and January 20 would only stand until the end of the first GWB term, but the Electoral College votes separately on President and VP, so the replacement could be voted in for the coming term as if he had been on the ticket last week.

Carl Albert was a heartbeat away for a couple different periods of a few weeks in '74 after the Agnew and Nixon resignations. As a Democrat next in line to Republican presidents, he announced that if circumstances forced him to assume the office he would resign immediately after a Republican Vice President was confirmed.
