ZELL MILLER II: THE KISS...According to the Washington Post (via Drudge), Sen Joe Lieberman could be on the short list to replace Donald Rumsfeld as Secretary of Defense sometime this year or early 2006. This by no means indicates that Rumsfeld will resign, who has often reminded people that he will serve until Bush asks him not too. As Al Kamen points out, Lieberman (or his seat) would be up for reelecion in 2006, allowing the Republican governor of Connecticut appoint a Republican "incumbant" before the 2006 election.
