Former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice will endorse former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney Wednesday night, a source close to the Republican’s presidential campaign confirmed to the Fix.

Rice will throw her formal endorsement behind Romney in California, where he is attending fundraisers in the San Francisco area. Since leaving government, Rice has been teaching political science at Stanford University.

Wouldn’t be surprised to see her name on the short list for VP. Wouldn’t mind it either.

I would rather see someone who has held elective office and who has established conservative positions on economic and social matters.

More interesting is why didn’t she endorse her fellow RINO while he was still fighting it out with Santorum and Newt?

I respect the choice of waiting until the GOP has its nominee. I would hope that she would have endorsed whoever was nominated.

People need to face reality, that the alternative to Romney is Obama, and a 2nd term of Obama will be a catastrophe of unappreciated magnitude to this country and our freedom.

The Free Republic He-Man Mitt Haters Club is a world of its own.

They make it up as they go along.

The Romney haters had better wake up and face reality. Obama is an evil, avowed enemy of the United States and they can’t deny that.

They don't bother denying that Obama is an avowed enemy of America.

Their argument is that, of the two, Romney is the greater enemy of God.

They are either naive or infiltrators. I will no longer argue with them.

I will vote for Romney.

Nice lady. Smart, accomplished, capable, likeable, but too far left of center to balance Romney as a VP choice.

Choosing Condi over Allen West for VP would be like choosing a bow and arrow over an M16 for combat.

This woman was SECRETARY OF STATE under the LOSER who helped put Obama in the Oval Office.

Under the Administration she served, the Patriot Act, TSA and Homeland Security was established whose powers have ABUSED the rights of American citizens while FAILING to identify and target MUSLIMS.

Under her Sectretary of Stateship, Bush delivered his TOTALLY ASSININE speech about ISLAM being a PREACEFUL Religion - right after a bunch of Islamic Fanatics - in TYPICAL MUSLIM FASHION - incinerated nearly 3,000 American civilians in a cowardly attack.

Under Bush’s administration and her direction, we got embroiled in a PROLONGED OCCUPATION of Iraq and Afghanistan after taking out the dictarorshipes which existed there. We have lost countless American lives and dollars in a FUTILE effort to civilize Islamic Savages without IDENTIFYING and eradicating the underlying problem - ISLAM.

Under her tutelage as Secretary of State, the Bush Administration rolled over and played dead with respect to Mexico’s INVASION of our southern borders by a Mexican army of illegals, and at least two Hispanic-American Border guars were PERSECUTED - not just PROSECUTED - by her administration.

If Romney picks ANYONE connected in ANY WAY with that idiot George Bush and his administration - HE LOSES.

And if he picks RICE, I very well may vote for an independent.
