Madeleine Albright, who became the first female U.S. Secretary of State and highest ranking woman in government in 1997, is frightened by the possibility that Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, Republican John McCain's running mate, could assume the presidency.
Asked today in an interview with Plain Dealer editors and reporters if she is scared by the prospect of Palin being a heartbeat away, Albright, who has endorsed Democrat Barack Obama, responded without hesitating, "Yes. Yes."
"Having served two presidents, I think the job of the president is the most difficult job in the world," said Albright, who advised President Carter on national security and foreign policy and later President Clinton as secretary of state. "What you need in a vice president - and I've felt this for a long time because I've watched [vice president Walter] Mondale and [vice president] Al Gore - is that you need a partner. The job is huge and needs somebody not only for the heartbeat part but in the day-to-day governance.
"Gore went a step further of being almost like a prime minister ... taking away the underbrush of issues to do with how two countries relate to each other. So you need somebody that actually knows what they are doing. I see that with the Obama-Joe Biden relationship. I certainly don't see it in the McCain-Palin relationship."

Yeah, she's "Coyote Ugly".
"Coyote Ugly" is defined as waking up in the morning next to her with your arm under her head and chewing it off so you won't wake her up when you leave.
Bill sure could pick 'em, couldn't he? I think these dykes were brought on board for Hillary.
I’ll just bet it scares her. The All American Girl will set Madeline’s Socialist agenda back 25 years!
GO SARAH PALIN!
Albright, thanks alot for the Bosnia Kosovo gift that keeps on giving and giving and giving and giving... We are still there you worthless hedge fund scammer...
Note to Albright.....STOP EATING!!!!
She advised two of the worst foreign policy presidents in the 20th century.
Take a couple reds and go lay in the dirt, Madeleine.
There used to be a New York saying about an incompetent detective, “He couldn’t find a Jew in the Bronx”. Madeline Albright couldn’t find a Jew at the kitchen table. She was in her sixties when she discovered her Jewish heritage. I’m scared of her being Secretary of State but it’s too late for that.
I like it. LOL
Hey Madeleine, Does your face hurt?
Maddy the Dancing Midget scares the Hell out of anyone with even a minimum of common sense.
She all but went to her knees to service the ‘Dear Leader’ Kim Jong Il when she was SecState, the only difference between her and Condi Rice is that Condi has a better wardrobe, and better boots. (and that’s the only good thing you’ll hear ME say about our current SecState)
Madeleine you ignorant slut.
Shut up.
Have you met Governor Palin? Have you talked with her? Do you know her? ....... then shut up.
Sarah Palin does not have a track record in foreign policy. You do. Yours is bad. Shut up.
Sarah Palin has shown better judgment than you. Shut up.
I love you Kim...I know you wouldn’t lie to me. Here’s to Trust!!!
Who cares what that old battle-axe thinks?
Yep.
She makes Cordell Hull look like George C. Marshall.
It amazes me how so easily “scared” Libs are. The idea of a Communist regime here sends tingles down their legs; but a courageous woman sends them into weak-kneed wimps.
And that’s just the males.
who cares what that scary old b says.
So that's where Guy Lombardo went!
