Jeb Bush probbly has the base qualifications for a presidential run, like him or not. But I think it is safe to say that the Bush name has too much controversey for a run anytime soon. Besides, he says he doesn't want to run, just like HIllary says she doesn't want to run.
I think that a McCain-Powell ticket, McCain-Rice, would work nicely. Giuliani is apparently too moderate, according to pundits, and Schwarzenegger is the supposedly the same (and has that naughty Austrian birthright to overcome Constitutionally!).
As for waht the Democrats have in store...I honestly don't have a clue! I think that they will back Clinton into a corner and ask her to break her promise to us New Yorkers and run anyway. I hate to say this, but Hillary Clinton has probably done a decent job representing us here in NY, and I was in the front row calling her a carpetbagger when her plane landed for a campaign stop! The people I know who dislike her have that feeling because of what she allowed her husband to do to her, and get away with, and the generally "cold as ice" exterior that she presents.
Of course, Rice seems to be just as cold on occasion, so maybe I'm throwing the hypocrisy on too thick. But it is easier to do it to a person who's views aren't in agreement with your own, no?
BOttom line: Gimme a GOP Moderate in '08 and I'll be juuuust fine.
