Most Americans do not know who Susan Rice is so she is a clean slate.
That is why it will be Rice.
The Trump Campaign would make sure that is not true by election time. Lots of skeletons there.
Makes sense. She will have to take likability classes. I just watched a bit of her interview with morning joke. She claimed that her 69 page "playbook" would have stopped the Wuhan flu. She's delusional. Not sure if she can be molded into "likable". I read the "playbook" and it was all truisms and meaningless checkboxes. Certainly no advice on what to do when China/WHO lies about an emerging pandemic.
If picked she will end up as the COVID harpy. That's not going to play well. That doesn't mean she can't help out sleepy Joe with the suburban females.
