Does Planned Parenthood need federal funding? I don't think so. I'm not against anyone having an abortion if they want one, but why should taxpayers pay for it?
I guess you are right and there is certainly no way that Mr. Romney would have nominated a pro-life justice to the Supreme Court or anything.
I don't see why the pro-choice thing is being brought up. Even Romney said that he PERSONALLY against abortion, but that he thinks you have to allow other people to make their own choice. I don't think Condie being pro-choice would be a problem at all.
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.
It would be a clear signal that the GOP has pulled their heads out on a number of issues. Condi would make a very intriguing nominee. She'd be an excellent president too. The woman is brilliant and exudes competence. The GOP could a candidate with both qualities in abundance.
And I do love irony. I'd love to see the GOP be the first to nominate a black woman. But would they actually do such a thing??
i disagree, identity politics is important with minority groups when a viable minority is running.
Oh really? Where is Herman Cain? Why did George Bush do so badly with black voters when he had several prominent black cabinet members? Why did Republicans loose so bad under the direction of Micheal Steele?

I think they would. But the problem is that Condi doesn't want to run. I was really hoping that we could have Condi run against Hilary in 2008. That would have been great! Or against Obama would have been great too. I was thinking how great it would be to have the first black president AND the first woman president all rolled into one! And if she's gay like some people say - well hey, she could be the first black, the first woman, and the first gay president all rolled into one! Maybe there's already been a gay president and they were in the closet though.
This is an extremely competent and intelligent woman who commands the respect of citizens of both parties.
She is pro-choice and pro-gay.
She is also about 60 years old and has never been married. Tongues wag about the reason for that. I suspect that neither she nor the GOP would want to go through the experience of what the dirt diggers would come up with.
No dirt at all. She is in what appears to be a committed relationship with Randi Bean. i wish them nothing but happiness.
