You mean Condi would run as a Democrat? She's pro-choice, IIRC. Otherwise, it's impossible for her to win, IMO. No way will the first female President be pro-choice. So that leaves out both Hillary and Condi.

So abortion is the only issue that qualifies one to be President of the United States? Interesting concept.

IMHO Abortion is not the most important issue except for a small percentage on the extremes. I bet either party would be flexible if the alternative was losing. I'd rather have a POTUS who was 'pro choice' who appointed strict constructionist judges to the SCOTUS than vice versa. There are people to whom it is the most important, or even the only issue, but there are as many or more who have other issues that are more important. I, too, am a single issue voter; for me it's the second amendment that trumps everything. For others it's the war on Islamofacism.
My money is that she would be somewhat less pro life than GWB and aim towards the center where most people are (1st trimester OK, 2nd only if life of mother is in danger, 3rd no way).

Its always the media that pushes the abortion vs. the anti-abortion issue. The truth of the matter is that neither Dems nor Repubs will ever have a true sayso in the matter. Thats up to the Supreme Court.............

But because it is the media that pushes the issue, their agenda will be to leverage Rice's pro-choice stand (if it truly is because I have never heard about how she stands on that issue)against the anti-abortion conversatives in an attempt to garner votes for whichever Dem that runs...........

Just like they are trying to prop up McLaim in the hopes that they can get him the Rep nomination then tear him to shreds........
