Condoleezza Rice has an incredible presence. Of all the political figures on the scene today, she is the most Presidential. I would love to see her onstage with the Beast in a debate. At one podium the dowdy, graceless figure, the unbearably grating voice, the cold dead eyes, and the stultifying message of Hillary Clinton. At the other, the slender, impeccably dressed figure and lovely face, the cultivated, musical voice, and the reasoned, informed message of Condoleezza Rice. I predict the largest audience ever for the presidential debates. And a landslide for Condi.
Be Seeing You,
Chris
I don't dispute a single point of your comment. I can clarify my less than rousing endorsement for Condi by stating that it's related to her views on abortion. She classifies herself as "mildly pro-choice". Personally, I do not believe there is that much wiggle room, morally speaking. Some information on her views on this topic can be found here:

I don't believe Condi will ever run, but if she did, she would trump the Hildebeast and any other Dem by default on the "who cares more about minorites?" issue.
