I don't really expect him to make significant changes. One of my fears is that he'd let Powell go. I think that Powell is a forces that anchors this administration to reality, and I think it would be bad if he left, but I wouldn't be suprised if they replaced him for that exact reason. Other then that I don't have any predictions. If Bush was unwilling to fire Rumsfeld in the face of Abu Gharib, when the Economist ran "Resign, Rumsfeld" in bold on their cover, he isn't going to fire him now. I think Ashcroft is doing exactly what they want him to do. I think they are very happy with him and back him 100%. I think they are happy with Rice. You're going to see some more reorganization around CIA and DHS, but they are happy with Ridge.
