Rice also brings foreign policy experience that can't be matched by any of the front-runners of either party. Fluent in Russian, she holds a Ph.D. in international studies and is an expert in Soviet military affairs. Not a bad résumé item in an era when Vladimir Putin is so busy flexing his muscles that he can't seem to keep his shirt on.

A former provost of Stanford University, she also served as national security adviser during Bush's first term. Since becoming secretary of state, she's busied herself trying to advance democracies in the Middle East and, recently, getting Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas and Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert to sit down together.

Washington, says an internal poll by Zogby International found that 41 percent of Republicans thought Rice would bring "excitement" to the presidential ticket.

This could be a way to blow both dem front runners out,

McCain/Rice 2008, what's your opinion?

She’s been an uninspiring, unproductive, phantom as Sec. of State. Why would we want her?

My opinion is that it sucks like an intern...that’s enough of a ticket to make a Republican contemplate voting Democrat

No. She has not done a very good job as SecState. Her views on the middle east, well, basically suck.

Rice is pro-choice and for affirmative action! Do you even know that Rice is a RINO?

Well, McCain is hopeless on everything but the WOT, and Rice is hopeless on the WOT, so I guess you could call that a “balanced ticket”.

Having Rice on the GOP ticket would only help in winning the Electoral votes from the State of Palestine.

The War Secrets Sen. John McCain Hides

But there was one subject that was off-limits, a subject the Arizona senator almost never brings up and has never been open about -- his long-time opposition to releasing documents and information about American prisoners of war in Vietnam and the missing in action who have still not been accounted for. Since McCain himself, a downed Navy pilot, was a prisoner in Hanoi for 5 1/2 years, his staunch resistance to laying open the POW/MIA records has baffled colleagues and others who have followed his career. Critics say his anti-disclosure campaign, in close cooperation with the Pentagon and the intelligence community, has been successful. Literally thousands of documents that would otherwise have been declassified long ago have been legislated into secrecy.

She’s currently making a fool of herself with regard to Israel.

The White House simply does not have room for all her shoes much less her pursuit of erasing Israel from the Map.

Rice has been a big dissappontment as Sec State. She's drunk the pro-Pali, anti-Israel Koolaid at the Foggy Bottom receptions.

McCain/Rice 2008, what's your opinion?

Stinks.

She is a Pagan giving YHvH's city and land to the Evil One.
