She would be great, and I can tell you that she was completely gracious to a stranger she squeezed next to at what was really a very extraordinary time in the nation's history.
At the time, she was widely considered to be the top choice for Bush's National Security Adviser. She clearly was interested in the outcome of the election. We talked some politics, some weather (it was kind of a nasty drizzle that night), and we did a lot of speculating about what was happening in Florida that caused Gore to "un-concede".
I now regret we didn't talk any football.

Not scrolling to all the other posts here by now but that is a stunning ( as in drop you in your tracks) photo on so many levels. Artistic (first on purpose), political, racial, gender, and so damn smart of a smile.

No, no I didn't! You pulled a "Wile E. Coyote painting a tunnel onto a rock" on me!
Damn Browns fans...

I hope you have put your memories on tape.Not even close. I mentioned the encounter a couple of times previously at FR, but not quite to that degree of detail.
And it really doesn't mean squat in the overall history of the republic. I was the one who was honored to be there at the right place at the right time, but it was one of those really cool things. Election Night 2000, standing beside Condi waiting for Dubya to come out, and he never did. Just the Jumbotron at the side with Candy Crowley on CNN saying Al Gore had withdrawn his telephone concession conversation with Dubya.
Definitely one of those WOW moments.

Yes, it is, I agree and she is a concert pianist which makes that photo all the more breathtaking.

I know many of you freepiberals believe you've built up a lot of good will here on Freerepublic, but pretending Rice is anywhere near conservative and has credentials that merit the NFL Commissioners job or even the POTUS is obnoxious -less the jokes, less the charade.

Ah... the insults from a poster who must have a gun pointed at his head forcing him to this thread. Get lost.
