Not until she modifies her views on abortion, she won't!

She's said repeatedly that she's not running, and I believe her. But if she did, here's a wild card suggestion. She could acknowledge that she's pro-choice -- but then insist, as a pro-choice, socially moderate, judicial conservative, that Roe was wrongly decided (the Krauthamer position). She could then pledge to nominate Scalia-Alito type judges, placing her rhetorical emphasis on the many issues other than abortion at stake in the constitutional debate.

Rudy Giuliani could do the same thing. That might scramble the deck.

I daresay the percentage of people willing to vote for a male as president is somewhere close to 100%.

Good point, and even more telling when we are at war. Will women trust a woman (my preference for the out-of-the-ordinary Dr. Rice excluded), especially a Dem woman, in a time of war? Doubtful.

I think Condi would be a great President, but can we put someone into the White House who supports killing babies?

Please see my #20. Some combination of Rudy and Condi would absolutely sweep the country, IMO. IF they could get past the primaries.

There is a Civil Disobediance counter offensive to run against Clintonian curtailment of First Amendment Rights:

Everyone simultaneously and publicly violates unconstitutional restrictions on free speech. There cannot be enough Government censors to stop a flood of free speech.

"Any chance of a bloke getting it?"

The Republican nominee will be a man. Hillary has the Democratic nomination locked.

Whether or not the Republicans can win depends on the Iraq situation just before the election, if you ask me (assuming we still have troops there.)

That's what a once Free South Vietnam thought.

MICHAAL SAVAGE is warning us of the Fascist State that a President HILLARY will bring upon us.

With us Freepers right in her cross-hairs.

"so will internet speak be dead. "

True. Dead as we know it. We need to keep it alive in other ways, if it comes to that.

Which means the female candidate would be competing for votes only within a 79% subset of the population.

You are assuming people won't vote for someone they are "not willing" to vote for.

I have cast plenty of vote against the lesser of too evils, I don't think these folks would necessarily NEVER vote for a woman. Also, any disadvantage there would be nullied if there were two women running.

No, we NEED to prevent a President HILLARY at ALL costs to ensure our own safety in a new time of war with an enemy that's now just around the corner and up your street.

Now your GET it.

In a still Communist enslaved Vietnam, the Communists and the Peoples Army of Vietnam are the ONLY ones who HAVE the guns.

Something that's right up a President HILLARY's alley.

Guaranteed.

"21% were NOT willing to vote for a woman president."

So, let's hope Condi runs against Hillary.

I say we need to do both. Fight all out to beat Hillary, but still make contingency plans. We can survive Hillary (as a society) but only if we have a plan.

You are correct!

She is pro-choice and so is McCain.

Neither of them could get the majority of the base who are anti-abortion.

I have been predicting this for some time.

Look for Cheney to retire for "health reasons" in late 2006>

Don't blame the messenger, I call 'em as I see 'em.
