I guess things have improved, in the Middle Ages people would have thought she was a witch.

It doesn't matter who runs though she's quite the hypothetical presidential candidate.

This country voted to a more liberal tune this past tuesday, so I don't expect that to change anytime soon unless we're close to "Greece status".

You mean Condaleeza "Mushroom Cloud" Rice? No thanks and I think that many will agree. IMO...she knows the can of worms that will be reopened and she will never run for any office again.

Don't people realize that part of the Romney problem was his ties with the Bush administration during the campaign?

Can we please let the neocon purge begin!? The last two republican nominees have been epic failures. Why nominate one who's exactly the same?

It's over for the neocons! Nominating another one (condaleeza rice) would be a disaster for the republicans in 2016. I'm hoping the Republicans will finally clean house starting with the evangelical theocrats and then begin to purge the neocons that are destroying the GOP.

The GOP will never grow or gain support, till it returns To a party of freedom, Liberty, and peace.

Neither her or Colin Powell would ever make it through the GOP primaries.

I have a feeling a lot of conservatives are like me - fiscal conservatives/social moderates.

No president is going to the epitome of what either party wants. Obama didn't decide he was for gay marriage until THIS election came up. Yet he was nominated in 2008 and gays voted for him in 2008.
So THAT'S why dozens of republican led statehouses all over the country introduced and tried to pass personhood legislation --because they're all social moderates?

Do republicans really think Condi Rice has a prayer in a national election? She's a neo-con puppet and most blacks and other Democrat voters will see right through that. She was despised by most right alongside Dubya.
