"I think that Condoleezza Rice would be a wonderful vice president and she certainly has much more experience than our sitting president," former Gov. Sarah Palin (R-AK) said when asked for her reaction to news that Rice is near the top of Romney's list for VP.
Palin is asked by host of "On the Record" Greta van Susteren what she thought about Rice being "moderately pro-choice."
Palin tells host of "On the Record" Greta van Susteren that she would prefer a pro-life vice presidential candidate, however she says ultimately the power to legislate abortion does not lie with the vice president.

While some will be genuine, others will just hide behind the "abortion" statement which was a voiced support for changing the culture so abortion is rare rather than celebrated as it is now, support for parental consent, support against federal funding.
But I've seen more than my share of Condi threads since Obama happened on the scene. There's often more than a little racism involved. At other times, sexism rears its ugly head.
It's despicable and beneath the aspirations of real conservatism.
I don't like her 'soft' prochoice view, it doesn't reflect my views, but that was in an interview four years ago and Romney's the top of the ticket. Practically speaking, Palin is right.

Palin: Condi Rice “Would Be A Wonderful Vice President”
***Hopefully, this means Palin has her eye on 2016 or beyond, when she might be up against Condi Rice and knows how to beat her. But if Romney chooses a social conservative for VP choice, Palin would have trouble running against that one in the future.

El Rushbo was quoting from some story about Condi Rice making an “ideological speech.”
Vice-Presidents usually do that job for RINO Presidents like RIchard NixOn who had a Rockefeller Republican named Spiro Agnew read attacks on the liberal media written by William Safire and Pat Buchanan.
I guess Agnew has changed race and wears a skirt in the 21st Century for a new RINO President? named Romney.

"I think that Condoleezza Rice would be a wonderful vice president, and she certainly has much more experience than our sitting president does today". --S.Palin
It makes me nervous when a conservative leader criticizes Obama for his "lack of experience". The communist SOB wants to destroy the America we know. Why in hell should we want him to be more experienced?

President Bush was willing, against a lot of criticism, to assert American leadership, she [Rice] said, adding: Im pretty certain I don't see that same level of willingness to assert this [from Obama]: That the United States is indeed exceptional, the United States isnt just the lowest common denominator of what the [United Nations] security council can deliver.

"Palin would never run as VP again. She paid her dues."
You sure?
"Shell either run for Prez or stay out next cycle."
Hopefully she will be the first woman President.
"Same with Gov. Christie, imo." Christie is a RINO extraordinairre.

Well as usual it’s been another fun thread to read . The so called conservatives who walk on water thinking the Constitution will be restored overnight VS the common sense that socialist light beats marxism anytime .

Great point. It goes to the point of whether he is evil or merely incompetent. I say evil.

Mr. RomneyCARE is not evil. He just does
very bad things over and over, and then pays off
people and lies about them.
Like DEATH PANELS. Like ObamaCARE/RomneyCARE.

You filthy lying scumbag, any casual review of my posts reveals the utter depth of contempt in which I hold the Kenyan usurper. Go find ONE post of mine over the past 4 years in which I have had any charitable thing to say about that abomination in the White House. I challenge you to do that, because you can't, and you won't find any.
There is a reason that everytime I type the name '0bama' that I substitute a 'zero' for the alpha 'O', because that signifies 'Comrade Zero'.
In your case, 'Zero' represents your utter lack of comprehension (and probably your IQ + maybe 60 points)
Now either put up or shut up, find any posts of mine where I have even hinted at supporting 0bama, or GTF outta here.

Oh really Larry? And just how exactly am I helping to re-elect 0bama by trashing him in my previous post?

I wouldn't buy stock in your pathetic mewling no matter HOW many books you pimp on your FR home page 'Professor' Schweikart. You have proven the wise words of the late Jerry Clower, who stated to an allegedly degreed intellectual,
"It is clear to me Sir, that you are educated far beyond your intelligence!"
'stocks and stones' BWHHAAAHHA!!!

Condi is pro-abortion and Condi shares a California condo with another middle-aged, never-married woman. She’d be a great decision for vice-president if it was on the ticket with Obama.
Her international expertise began where Madeleine’s ended which is not surprising since they both had the same teacher: Albright’s father.
Besides, it’s no good trying to ‘balance’ the ticket with another African. Believe it or not, there are a few good men that would be a perfect balance to Romney’s middle of the road politics.

And another thing, I’ve long been a fan of Palin; however, she has definitely supported the signing and implementation of the LOST UN fiasco!

Excellent point and good to see it brought up, not many people know this.
Besides, its no good trying to balance the ticket with another African. Believe it or not, there are a few good men that would be a perfect balance to Romneys middle of the road politics.
I've seen Romney described in many ways, but 'middle of the road' is not one of them. He is and remains, a lying Massachusetts liberal, the ideological father of 0bamaCare.
