Nominating Condi is very likely suicide --- for racial reasons as well as the abortion issue. I think, however, that a semi -pro -abortion candidate could, if need be, couch their position on abortion in purely legal terminology and likewise find success as a republican candidate.
What worries me more is the unlikely prospect that America will elect a black president at this point in time.
I'm not all that confident that the dems would nominate hillary in the end.
Does being mildly pro-choice mean that an aborted baby is mildly dead?
Admitted? All she admitted to is that she's a weanie.
I agree. It is so early in the whole process. To put things in perspective, if this were 2001, there would still be 6 months before 9/11. And that of course became the whole focal point of the first Bush term.
I do believe Clinton would kill for the nomination, and will probably get it.But it is far too early to speculate on the Republican candidate for 2008. Let the term start playing out first, and things will occur. On this basis a candidate(s) will begin to emerge, and we'll have plenty of time to raise Clinton's negatives to unsustainable.
So if Democrats vote for hillary instead of Condi ...wouldnt that make them racists?
Condi wouldn't win one primary and Hillary will never be President.
McCain, McCain, McCain, You're making me break out in hives.
Let's speculate about Rove getting on board with any new candidate.
Calamine for my itch.
Best check in with the Red States. Washington is agog about anything from centerline to extreme left.
No, you've just found yourself amongst a herd of other RINOs...like YOURSELF!
Kick butt and take RINO screen names...

Looks like I caught me a loudmouth [b]ass!

At the butt kicking contest you're a one-legged man. Take all the names you like. Put 'em in your secret tin-foil-covered scrapbook.

If Condi plays a big role in a successful Middle East peace policy/taming Iran/NK, she'll have put to bed that 'never held elective office' worry. Only V.P. Cheney has more stature and experience, but he doesn't want to run.
Nobody 'runs' for VP. The choice of running mate should be up to the presidential candidate.
Neither Taft or Hoover held elective office prior to being elected President.
Considering their records in office, I can't really reccommend future preisidential candidates without having held prior eletive office.
She's never run a family, has she?
If not, then she doesn't have a clue.
