WASHINGTON—Ambassador Susan Rice's attempt to repair her standing with Senate Republicans fell short Tuesday, as a trio of GOP senators emerged from a meeting with her even more harshly critical of the comments she made following the U.S. consulate attack in Libya.

U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice, a candidate to succeed departing Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, met with senators Tuesday on Capitol Hill.

Think it through. Kerry won’t make the documents public until he’s ready. McCain, Graham, and Ayotte must have Kerry in the State Department to control Obama. Obama cannot allow Kerry in as SoS because Kerry is ambitious.

Most likely resolution is for Obama to determine what McCain, Graham and Ayotte want and provide it to them. Their objections to Rice will disappear.

Meanwhile, Obama wants Kerry to be Defense Secretary. Kerry could help Obama by publicly embracing a Sec of Defense nomination. Yet, Kerry remains silent.

Susan Rice has a mean evil look, bet she even scares the s h i ! out of her two kids...

she always seems to be look down on the American Public...sorta like saying..”I do what I want to do’ and you do not matter”

very frightening..I really fear for the future of this Nation.

I got NO response from Ayotte.

Hmmmm.

Below is the note I sent to Senator Ayotte:

Sen. Ayotte, Many thanks for keeping the pressure on concerning Benghazi. I do have a related question: Have you (or anyone associated with you) made enquiries concerning Mr. Obama’s citizenship records?
