Elections ought to be about character, principles and experience, not race or gender.

With race or gender. we would have been a whole lot closer to character, principles and experience,

“Elections ought to be about character, principles and experience”


Mittens doesn’t have character, principles or even experience in running a government conservatively. So he’s going to have to run on Obama’s lack of those three characteristics as well and hope the public at large doesn’t realize he’s a dirty con-man too.

“Ms. Rice’s assets are obvious: She’s a woman; she’s black …”

This is the problem with the USA, We couldn’t look at her as being intelligent or having foreign policy experience.
Heck we can’t even note THAT SHE DIDN’T WANT THE JOB!!

I can the imagine the indignity the Democrats and the MSN had in mind for Condi Rice if she she were picked for VP.

The Romney campaign had recently tested Condi Rice as a trial balloon.

Thank God they didn't go down that road.

No doubt she was being pushed by the holdover RINO, McLame advisers, Mitt stupidly retained and wanted her in order to court the so called "Moderates."

She is but a step above Colin Powell (which ain't saying much) in her liberal views and would have been a disaster in efforts to get true Cons like myself in holding our noses and trying hard not to regurgitate as we voted for Romney, not that we support him, as few of us do, but in an effort to keep the commie from getting reelected.

Well, here’s the facts. The facts are that despite actually being in power in both Congress and the White House, the Democratic Party turned a blind eye, in fact they even hiked the deficits to multiples of Bush on a bad year, turned their heads while Obama commanded what he would call a “dumb war”, in Libya, as well as adding Somalia, Yemen, and a few other places to the unofficial list of rogue states. Since the rule by the left has been totally a waste of time, that’s about all they are going to focus on, regardless of whom we ever got as the nominee or running mate, because frankly, their “sky is falling” rhetoric is all they’ve got. Very few politicians in the GOP would govern extremely far off center, and that’s a fact that even they can’t live without distorting.
