Sarah Palin: Condoleezza Rice would be ‘wonderful’
Politico ^ | 7/13/12 6:59 AM EDT | KEVIN ROBILLARD

Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, the last GOP running mate, predicted former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice would make a “wonderful” vice president for Mitt Romney.

“I think that Condoleezza Rice would be a wonderful vice president, and she certainly has much more experience than our sitting president does today,” Palin said Thursday night on Fox News’s “On the Record with Greta Van Susteren.”

Watch the video. Sarah is definitely not enthusiastic about Rice. She then followed up that the team should be PRO LIFE.

“The problem with Condi is that it makes it Obama vs Bush...Condi will be grilled over her role in the leadup to the Iraq War, it’s going to open up a can of worms that was best left alone.’

The lead up to the war and the war has resulted in a safe America, and that war was a price we had to pay. Obama has followed those policies. This would not be a negative to argue.

While you may very well be right, that view is in the minority today.

I hthought Sarah was pro-life.

Her neocon faith trumps little things like that.

The VP will likely be Susana Martinez, she will fit in perfectly with Romney...a Dem before she was a "republican"....

Or it will be Brian Sandoval, elected Governor of Nevada. He was appointed United States District Judge for the District of Nevada by President George W. Bush in October 2005, becoming the state's first Hispanic federal judge.

Sure Romney personally promised he’d pick a pro-life VP but hey? What are the pro-lifers going to do? Vote for Obama?

This is their answer every time they stick a finger in the conservatives’ eyes.

[SLAP!] Hey, don’t get mad, we have to stick together to defeat Obama.

“is that it makes it Obama vs Bush”

Only if people let them. And there is nothing wrong with the Bush record anyway.
How many terrorist attacks did we have after 911?
Why do people here want to throw him under the bus?

She is.

But a candidate needs to answer one question truthfully: will the candidate do the will of the people even if it differs from the candidate's personal "feelings" or opinions? Romney, for instance, has a progressive streak a mile wide, but I believe he is willing to set it aside for the good of the country. Can Condi do the same? Sarah seems to think so. Can the other potential VP choices? That is the real issue.

I can hear the democrats and media now....

“Romney is a racist for picking Rice.”

“Romney is a sexist for picking a woman”

“Romney is desperate”

“Republicans would never allow her to be the nominee for President”

“Rice is stupid anyway and a sell out to her race”
Actually, I think they already used that one.

“Rice is Bush in a skirt”

“Rice has no experience”

“Rice is a felon too”

Sorry, Sarah, but if Mitt wants a neocon chickenhawk as his VP, he ought to go all the way and name little Billy Kristol. He just LOVES to send other peoples’ kids into impossible no-win foreign meatgrinders.

Beg to differ. It is safe to praise Professor Rice as an excellent choice for VP in the certain knowledge that there is a snow ball’s chance in Hell that she would accept the offer if it came. The lady has been as explicit as humanly possible in saying no way, no how, ain’t interested (in running for any elective office). If Sarah had given any answer but the one she provided it would be portrayed by the scum media as a cat fight. She handled it deftly and managed, as usual, to stick a blade into Obama while doing so.

These are serious times, and we need people who can handle the pressure. And Condi can handle it.

Plus her comment that Condi is more qualified than the sitting President is a classic Sarah zinger.

And, nothing but the truth!
