On reflection, I’m going to downgrade Chao to a two bagger. As an Asian, she is not a “real” member of a minority group because, like Jews, as a group Asians succeed in American society. No affirmative action huggy kissy for them.

I like Condi too, but no more Bush-bots. We’ve had enough of that family.

McCain will never get my vote if he shacks up with Rice.

horrible choice—too tied to the president—would preclude cross over dems from voting for mccain

The operating principle here seems to be that since they have a black candidate, we need a black candidate. Sigh.

There is a lot to like about Condi, but she has no governing experience, she is pro-choice, as you say she is too closely identified with Bush, and her job performance has been less than stellar. Plus, as a hated conservative of color, "Condamnesia" (as Rev. Wright calls her) will not deliver black votes.

If she wants to get into politics, she should become pro-life, run for a lower elective office, and get some experience.

Very true. Folks here are as stubborn as mules and very shortsighted.

You mean we don’t like anybody who supports the global warming crap, gun control, amnesty, campaign finance reform, closing down Gitmo, sucking up the the chicoms, ending waterboarding, complaining about our cowboy foreign policy and is shaky at best on tax cuts?

No way. The bloom is definitely off that rose.

Even considering the sources, there are some facts here that, at the very least, do not directly contradict suggestive inferences:

I think I’d prefer someone that was pro-Israeli rather than pro-Pali. A married person would also be better than a single person.

Rice, of course, works for an administration that is totally conservative and always doing things against liberals

Sorry, that sentence alone, with its lame phraseology, is enough to make me disregard the insinuations made.

Follow a couple of the links, including the one to the Washington Post article. Again, there are some curious facts here...what they mean is not clear.

If in the next couple of months we see a story about Condi dating some guy (as there was an item in the New York Post’s Page Six gossip column a few weeks ago about Hillary’s Huma Abedin ‘being seen with’ Rep. Anthony Wiener), there will be reason to suspect orchestration.

What about the San Francisco 49’ers player she dated when she was at Stanford? I heard she had planned to marry him at one time.

Anyway, don’t you think the gay mafia would have outed her by now? They have had every political reason to do so. I can only conclude that all such allegations are therefore baseless.

Yawn. If Condi wants a political spot, I recommend she unseat Babs Boxer in the CA senate. Or else run for Governor.

She's been pretty much a flop on the national scene, unfortunately.
