I suspect that Condi will not run for Prez - I agree there. Why the heck anyone would actually run for Prez now is beyond me, though.

If she does, however, it would be very tough for any single 'Pubbie now suspected to be on the list, to defeat her. Her stance on abortion and judicial activism is quite palatable for most conservatives and quite a few of the mushy middle, and her self-description of the details of her position there are very similar to President Bush's, regardless of the starting words. She might be beaten for nomination, but I maintain that she would easily win the general election if she were nominated.

March 10 Quinnipiac poll (biased to the left) says that 40% of Americans believe abortion should be illegal in most or all cases. Unlike President Bush, Condoleezza Rice does not believe abortion should be illegal at all. That is not "quite palatable for most conservatives", it will drive away the GOP base. Condoleezza Rice is the only potential candidate that Hillary can beat, which is why the MSM is desperately trying to get her the GOP nomination.
