I would love to see a race like this.

Dick Morris is the Stephen King of the political world. He's cranking out books left and right, and most seem to be mediocore at best. He's trying he best to sell, and he's living off a reputation from an administration that is now 6 years in the past.

He also floats with the currents--he's not rooted in any firm ideology other than monetary gain.

Like white on Rice

Brown rice is much better than white.

[be-baw]

There is no reason to believe she will run. Yesterday, on Fox News Sunday she was quite clear that she will NOT run.

"Gore, after suffering heartbreak in 2000, morphed into Sebastian Cabot's body double and gave speeches that would have even had Nikita Khrushchev telling him to "bring it down it a little." Since then, Al's gone completely Commando Cody – with a more environmentally friendly hybrid jet pack and ray gun equipped with a child safety lock – to save the planet from itself. Gore has departed on a mission from which, outside of intensive shock therapy, no political return is possible."

I don't care who you are, thats funny! Bwahahahah!

[Sabramerican]

Rice should definitely be President.

She has brought the US outstanding success in its foreign policy.

The great _______________________ achievement would not have occurred but except for her.

I am a supporter of Condi Rice but after her interview on Fox News Sunday yesterday I think she pretty much put a nail in the coffin when she said she would sooner be president of the NFL than POTUS.

next...

[manwiththehands]

True, Rice and Powell have only achieved some of the nation's highest offices and met with the world's most powerful people. They have yet to defiantly break the stereotypical mold like Belafonte did by singin' and dancin'.

(coffee spewing out of my mouth) HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! (snort) (cough cough) HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

[Senator Goldwater]

Rice is certainly an admirable figure, but the 2008 GOP nominee will likely be Giuliani.]

And he'll bury Hillary and anyone else that gets in his way.

[bIlluminati]

IMHO, Condi Rice has no chance of being nominated. In 2008 in the Republican primaries, being a woman is a push, being black is probably (at most) two points plus or minus, but being a Bush-type Republican will cost her twenty. Examples:

What's her stand on abortion? On taxes? Campaign finance? Kelo? What sort of judges will she name?

Oh, plus she's unmarried. If the Republicans want to win in 2008, especially against Hitlery!, a married candidate is probably worth 3-5 points. If she had been a governor, or even headed a Senate committee (especially Judiciary, but there are others) and shown her beliefs, then yes.

If Rice has ambitions beyond State, she should run for Governor or Senate in 2006 (assuming the seat is open). Track record and timing.

Clinton was being groomed for President in 1976. These things take time, money, and organization. George H. W. Bush could give George W. Bush significant help. W. will not be able to help at the same level.

This is not the Supreme Court. Many extremely talented politicians could not begin to compete at the Presidential level. Example: Schwarzenegger easily won in California, but even if he were eligible, would find it a challenge. And I think that Schwarzenegger, if eligible and interested, would smash almost any career politician. Schwarzenegger at State, though ...

Any Republican candidate needs both money and people on the ground. Check Free Republic, eagleforum, and similar sites (are there many)

I'm in favor of Condi running just because of the utter and complete devastation it would wreak upon the democratic party and Hitlery's cnadidacy specifically. Even if she were not the most perfect candidate (as if anyone is at this point) the damage it would do to the left would do so much to help this country move forward. I hate to think politically like that, but it is what it is. Demoralizing the tyrranical left will help to remove that obstacle to liberty.
