Her real problem has nothing to do with the color of her skin; it has to do with her position on abortion.
Single issue voters are morons. So, if GWB were not as pro-life as he is, and say Kerry won, would that have been good for the country while the terrorists got their message that we would cut and run?
Has Dr. Rice ever expressly stated her views on abortion? If so, could someone cite a source and quotes? Or are we just speculating?
Sadly, I must agree. She hasn't made a definative stance on RvW 'cept to say it's a states' rights issue. If she's pro-choice, say such, but don't expect to survive the primaries because of the social conservatives.
Her position on abortion is reflective of that of a large number of conservative women.
