The only real problem with her is that she is pro-choice. If she would promise to appoint strict constructionalist Justices who would return the abortion issue to the states if she were to become president, I'd probably accept it. Bush would simply need to be aware that there would be people willing to kill him simply to create the first black woman president by fiat.

Lets get real clear about something. Conservatives will put up with a lot but if a pro choice candidate joins the Bush ticket he will lose a lot a support. It will be "no new taxes" all over again. I supported GW as a precinct worker for the entire year before the election and since then as well, but even I have my limits. --MM

Condi is pro-choice like most American women are: that is, she would, given her druthers, probably prefer to have the issue returned to the states. I know that she is opposed to abortion-on-demand; she is, for instance, in favor of parental rights and notification. Like everyone else who is close to GWB, she is against partial-birth. Anyone who describes herself as a Second-Amendment absolutist is going to appoint Strict Constructionists to the High Court. Thus her "mildly pro-choice" approach to the abortion issue probably stems from her latent libertarian instincts. In short, she is not a feminazi.

Look, folks, I'm a supporter of hers in spite of this because I know that she is hyper-qualified for the Presidency. So is Dick Cheney, but he ain't gettin' any younger.

But the delicious thing about Condi is that she gives the Republican Party an absolute edge among Soccer Moms and other female voters while maintaining our commanding lead among white men. Black voters will still vote for the Democrat, simply because they've been conditioned to vote. The Democrats could run a Hitler-Heydrich ticket and they'd still win the black vote.

I promise you, a Bush-Rice ticket will absolutely stomp the opposition. Which will put Rice in a position to wipe the floor with the Hildebeast in the great Hair Pull of 2008.

Be Seeing You,

Chris
