Rice has never been married, nor has she ever had a long-term relationship that anyone is aware of. That leads to a lot of questions that she may not want to answer and the press (who have clearly established their hatred for Rice) would have a field day with.

"Rice has never been married, nor has she ever had a long-term relationship that anyone is aware of. "

That is not quite true. There is a man (former football player IIRC) that she's been romantically linked to in the past, with whom Condi has attended State dinners. My sense is that she is driven and devoted to her work. I don't believe that she is gay, if that is what you are suggesting.

Rice is a big girl.

"the press would have a field day"
I'm sure she would not have any problems with the morons in the press. LOL
She could and would "slam dunk" anyone in the press with half of her brain tied behind her back.
After being the provost at Stanford, she's had plenty of experience dealing with liberal pinheads.

As far as relationships go, the Clintoons have never had a longterm relationship either. LMAO

Even if she were gay, consider the non-leverage and backlash that Kedwards got from the Mary Cheney remarks.

I wouldn't mind a lesbian President, if she were a competent and conservative gal.

As I understand it, Dr. Rice is a very devout Christian, and that may influence her behavior.

She is also a very successful, very powerful African-American woman. Her potential list of suitors is probably not very long, although she is a very attractive woman.
