Palin: Condi Rice "Would Be A Wonderful Vice President"
Real Clear Politics ^ | July 13, 2012

Posted on 07/13/2012 11:36:49 AM PDT by Free ThinkerNY

"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.

I'm curious. Did you sit out the election in 2008 or did you vote for Obama? It would be hard for me to believe that a person who voted for McCain would have a problem voting for Romney.

Both Romney and McCain were chosen as GOP candidates by the Main Stream Media. I would be hard-pressed to identify any single principle which motivates either one, aside from self-interest.

I think Palin was just looking for a chance to take a shot at 0's experience and record.

Keeping in mind, no, I don't think she's a good choice, a couple of things she would bring:

- A courtesy mop to the VP debate to clean Biden off the floor.
- Female black voters who may *say* they're still supporting 0, but when the curtain was closed would be empowered.

Fine. Then you’re voting for Obama, and no amount of spin will change that.

There is nothing hidden about this. I am with Buckley: I will vote for the most conservative candidate who has a reasonable chance to win. In this election, it's not even close by a galaxy. That's Romney. Any vote for anyone else is 100% a vote for Obama, and all the spin in the world doesn't change that fact.

In 1932 Germans had a chance to vote against Hitler. Many had good reasons for not supporting the most conservative party that had a chance to stop him. But however genuine their reasons, they ended up contributing to Hitler's election. In a two-party system, there are two, and only two, choices.

Campaigning for Romney here was (is?) a zot on sight offense. I can’t see how campaigning for Rice would be any different.

Condi would NEVER be my first, second, or third choice...

Nor is Romney.

...but Daffy Duck, Scarface, or Walter White would be preferable to Joe Biden and that insufferable oaf of a president we have now.

Exactly.

At the age of 63, I take being called childish as a compliment... thank you.

It’s apparent that you too need to get yourself some of the PDS salve.

Tell you what, if you place your order today, I’ll send you some of my special product. It’s Preparation-H that I mix with sand. I call it RINO-Rhoid. It won’t make them go away, they will still hang out, but within a week they will toughen up enough that you will be able to drag ‘em around on the ground.

Oh, I did put a bit of fresh mint into the mix. That is for you folks that might inadvertently use this stuff to keep your teeth from falling out while you’re on a wild rant.

Order today.... it’s only $29.99.

Oh darn, I didn’t answer your stupid and oh so very adult questions. Sorry, but we have a very strong thunderstorm going on and it’s already shut my power off once. Besides, with folks like you, it would have been a waste of my time.

Cheers....

Shut your lying piehole. LibLieSlayer said no such thing, and unless you plan to sneak into the voting booth in hopes of seeing who he throws the lever for (don't try it, he'll smack you into next week), you have no basis for making such an allegation.

There will be other candidates to choose from besides 0bama and Romney, and each and every American including LibLieSlayer, has the right to vote for whoever-in-Hell they want to, without being accused by some doofus like you of 'voting for 0bama'.

At 63 years of age, it's time for you to grow the Hell up.

If you can't address legitimate questions raised about the goddess you worship, you need to think about changing your goddess.

I’m sure that you must believe that is a convincing argument, but it is not. I have no idea who you respect as a political expert, but I would say this: no one that I respect would have responded as you did.

Well you trot right back to my post #79, to the legitimate queries I made to the doddering old fool in question, then read his crapola at his post #89, and you will then hopefully see that my post #93 was not only appropriate, but well deserved.

It’s all pretty simple.

Actually it is pretty simple, even so it escapes you completely.

The way this works is we get a really bad democrat in office and the people go weeks, we have to get rid of this guy.

Then the establishment sets about funding the closest thing to the really bad guy that they can paint "Better than the other Guy" all over. That is how we always progress to the left.

ObamaCare by any other name still stinks.

If you are attempting to convince me that you are no gentleman, and that your ability to present an argument is unexceptional, you are winning me over.

>> “Sarah Palin endorses Carly Fiorina instead of the TRUE conservative, Chuck DeVore in the California GOP primary.” <<

.
MK, do you know Chuck?

I do, and I was amazed that he threw his hat into the ring, because there is no way that he would have had the fire to run against Box O’Rockxer, let alone handle the rigors of the US senate.

Chuck is a wonderful guy, but he is not cut out for the intensity of those battles.

It was the MSM that defeated Fiorina, and Chuck Devore would have saved them a ton of effort, because he would have been invisible.
