Anti-Israel, pro-abortion, and completely captured by the State Department bureaucracy.

Pro-affirmative action, among other things.

Sure.

In 1999, after stepping down as provost at Stanford to work for Bush's campaign, she told the San Francisco Chronicle that despite her devout Presbyterian background, she is a "pro-choice evangelical," and that "there's a lot of room in the middle [on abortion]. . . . I don't think Americans think abortion is something you do lightly." Later that year, she told National Review's Jay Nordlinger that she is "mildly pro-choice," and more generally, an "all-over-the-map Republican" whose views are "hard to typecast."

--from 2002, Weekly Standard

"I believe that while race-neutral means are preferable, it is appropriate to use race as one factor among others in achieving a diverse student body," Rice said.

--from 2003, CNN

According to "ontheissues.org", here is where Condi falls in the political spectrum:

I personally have been perturbed by what seems to be her over emphasis in public statements regarding how ISRAEL must continue to give up land, etc...while I have not seen her take on the terrorists of Hamas and the Palestinian territories so much.

And, while not a conservative or liberal question, I have been disturbed by her inability to clean house at the State Department...the place still seems to be filled with Clinton era liberals. This goes more to her administrative skills than to her political positions.

Condi has publicly stated that she supports a woman’s “right” to abortion...

Condi consistently stacks the deck against Israel, while coddling and loving the Palestinian Terrorists...

Condi has publicly favored race-based programs, spending, and preferences.

I am sure others will add to the list.
