Ann Romney 'pushed Mitt' to consider Condoleezza Rice as Vice-Presidential running mate
UK Daily Mail ^ | August 30, 2012 | Toby Harden

Ann Romney strongly advocated that her husband consider Condoleezza Rice as his vice-presidential running mate, according to campaign fundraising sources. 'I know that Ann Romney was intrigued by the idea of having Condi on the ticket,' a top Romney fundraiser with close personal ties to the Romneys told MailOnline. 'At the Utah fundraiser, she gave an unbelievable speech. 'Ann is a sounding board for Mitt. He values her intuition. Their relationship is the real deal. After the fundraiser, Condi was vetted and she filled out all the forms but she was reluctant and I don't think she was ever going to get it.

“——The only thing weird is that it always seems to be woman.——

I would expect that will be the case until we have a married Queer as President”

You don’t think that Todd will make any suggestions to President Palin?

Even Abigail Adams wanted Pres. Adams not to forget the women

Ryan has breathed much needed life and energy into the Republican campaign. Far better choice than Rice.

If Romney wanted to play the 2-for-the-price-of-1 card, my nominee for VP was Col. Allen West.

We will all be dead and buried way before they have a gay president....

Sometimes just for fun, I like to see how far can we go to make sure we cover all the bases to finally say we've been fair to everybody. When then will we get our first Lesbian-Latina-Asian-Jewish President?

I'm sure I've forgotten some oppressed class somewhere -- add another!

Thank you Lord Haw Haw for providing the Democrat Party response to last night.

Don’t you ever get tired of being a mindless propaganda stooge for the 0bama campaign?

Don't you ever get tired of hysterical trying to divert attention off your master Obama 4 year record of corruption, incompetence and bankruptcy?

Have you no sense of shame? No decency?

Is there not a point when even even you have to sit back and say to yourself "I cannot do this anymore, Obama is simply too corrupt and incompetent to be defended any longer"

Actually we should be reassured that Mitt did not allow himself to be pushed into this.

oh great...another liberal first lady...like Laura Bush

were I president that would not be an issue, my wife who I listen to as well...like most men do

is a hair more conservative than me on behavioral issues

*this where the Ann Romney Planned Parenthood connection comes back folks

don't be fooled...vote for them to get rid of the Anti Christ but don't be stupid and hypnotized by the rhetoric

Obama is basically the Pol Pot of modern American politics...Romney ...screwed up as he and his cronies are on Values America ..will be an improvement....a tire plug basically

now...Ryan...that would be a tire change and he is now in the queue ...which is why he was nominated...bait for us

Abigail was quite the fembot and social lib for her day too.

If the wife is a vocal moderate or liberal and the husband is a Republican you can bet that his views do not stray too far from her’s.

I realize they are trying for the women's vote which ain't gonna happen but I too tire of all the girl power always buttressed by the acknowledgment that mommies are jobs too and God bless em.

I tell ya....the act of validating women in our culture today is like trying to count sand...it never ends.

Why do conservatives have to prove we love women?

we are the ones who open doors for them, protect them, work our asses off so they can raise children and be tyhe moms kids need if we have them...and we usually do.

That is a sign of love..let me tell ya...it's a sacrifice for a dad...trust me.

Not lauding every second how women are so damned capable just like men...that is a canard. They simply are not in many areas...areas which do matter.

It is simply not by coincidence things were like they were for 1000s and 1000s and 1000s of years of civilization.

Technology has blinded us.

Anyhow...our women are infinitely more beautiful...amazing last nite..all the pretty women in attendance

HA_HA, You Romney-bots sure go into a tizzy over nothing. That is one of the tell-tale signs of a cult. Are you members of the LDS church too? They are really fun to get worked up.

Does your liberal master Romney supply you with a computer for your work too?

You should change your sign on to “BitchofLibs” since the only thing you ever do around here is propagandize for them.
