Dole-McCain 1996. Can McCain win the GOP Nomination in 2000?

Supposedly, Senator John McCain of Arizona was Former Senate Majority Leader Bob Dole's second choice for a running mate in the United States Presidential election of 1996. McCain would help Dole in states like Nevada and Arizona that Dole lost in OTL, but 1996 was just not Dole's year to win. That leads me to wonder, if McCain had been Vice Presidential nominee would he have a better shot at winning the Republican Party Presidential nomination in 2000 over Texas Governor George W. Bush?
