>From Michael:

If you remember, Barty Crouch Sr. was supposed to get the job as Minister. 
It was only after his son was convicted as a Death Eater that he was out of 
the running. My guess is that Fudge may have been a canidit, but only as a 
joke. After all, nobody ever expected him to actually become the Minister! 
And then when Crouch loses his popularity, Fudge finds himself as the new 
Minister. It also seems to me that Fudge either conections or money when he 
got involved in the ministry. Otherwise I don't see how he could ever land 
position as the Minister. But it may also be because he really worked to 
restore order after Voldemort's reign of terror. And since he was so adimant 
that Voldemort was really gone for good, people liked him. I, however, think 
that his days are numbered. It will be interesting to see what happens to 
him in 6&7.
