She describes herself as "reluctantly pro-choice." This is a significant mark against her, in my book, but I suspect the reason she takes such a stand is that she has never had to address the issue head-on. I think her Christian faith would lead her to the proper conclusion if she ever had to deal with the issue. I think I'd withold judgement on the issue until she gave a better acconting of the grounds for her reluctance, and elaborated on what she considers to be the limits of abortion rights.
And even supposing that she never recanted on abortion, one would still have to conclude that Condi Rice would be better than any Democrat -- who, after all, would have to have impeccable pro-abort credentials.
