Rudy has as much of a chance of being serriously considered as John McCain. Rudy was great for NYC and NY- but the Republican president can't be a moderate.

Dr. Rice is not ready to be President in the least (as least as far as I can see, from what I have seen of her). She simply does not come off as strong to me on the weekend talk shows. Silly Wolf Blitz eats her alive at times.

Condi would never get my vote, she is no conservative, she appeals mostly to the RINO's in the party. On the other hand Allen and Delay would get my vote in a minute.

Looks like she's stylish all the time. Looks like she's tromping through the tall grass in high heels - whatever they are they don't look like work boots:)

I understand why she wants to focus on her job as Sec of State. It is incredibly important right now. She is young enough to take the VP slot and later go for number one.
