>> According to the survey, Condoleezza Rice is on top of the list. Twenty-six percent questioned said they would like to see Rice, who served as national security adviser and later as secretary of state under President George W. Bush, as the Republican vice presidential nominee. <<

It just boggles my mind that so many self-described "conservatives" STILL are in love with the idea of Condi on the ticket four years later.

Dick Morris & Van Jones love of the idea of Rice being on the GOP ticket, that alone should convince Republicans of anyone BUT Rice.

I'd blame it on GOP voters being uneducated, except when I've talked with Condi fans, they're been told about her positions on the issues and these "conservatives" don't care. She all but admitted she voted for Obama and it doesn't even faze them! She's pro-abortion? No problem. Pro-amnesty for illegals? That's cool. She sucked up the Palestinians and kept trying to accomplish "statehood" for them when they run by Hamas? Okay-dokey. One self-described "conservative" I talked to even said he AGREED with her on the latter two issues.

It's like the morons who continue to love Donald Trump & Peter King no matter WHAT they do (I bet if The Donald announced a Trump 2012 campaign kickoff tomorrow, oddles of useful idiot "conservatives" would begin posting how he's the "true conservative" candidate and sooooo much better than Romney)

Romney's bad enough as it is, putting Condi on the ticket would actually move the GOP ticket to the LEFT. Any "conservative" who fantasizes about a Romney/Rice ticket, you really need to find a new label for yourself because that's anything but "conservative"

Mitt Romney needs a running mate who will reassure conservatives at least somewhat and provide some appeal to a key geographical area. Condoleezza Rice does neither of these things.

Bush stink AND genuine liberalism, I could hardly think of a worse choice (that would actually get mentioned) than Rice.
