I thought that I heard Bush explain it by saying that: the plan was to make a change after the election. When he addressed the issue of why he stated in the campaign the Rumsfeld and Cheney are both going to stay until 08.

State of Denial claims that right after the 04 election there was a big push to "make a change at the pentagon". They hasd already built a list of options (well before). Bush in the end decided nt to do it. My bet is that they really did can him as a result of the elections, and this was just the last straw. With this administration, politics override all other considerations (such as competence and ethics).
