Condi Rice as V.P?

[bassin_bug]

I have recently heard Condaleeza Rice and Colin Powell say they were not interested in being vice-president. Condi's statement was somewhat emphatic when she said she would not even consider it.

Cheney was pretty emphatic that he was not interested til the day he was chosen. I think Romney is needed for his economical skills but otherwise Rice is more intelligent than either POTUS candidate

Having seen her speak so emphatically about how much she doesn't want to be the VP I do believe she is sincere when saying that she doesn't want it. I have heard her say more then once that what she really would love to do is one day become the commissioner of the NFL. However sometimes people do respond when asked out of duty to their country, so I wouldn't rule it out.

I am a big fan, I think she would be better than Romney (not a real fan of his). My only concern is it opens up to the campaign the rehashing of everything from the Bush administration. Not sure that is the best strategy for beating Obama.

Don't think she will be the pick due to her Bush ties..... I think the Romney camp is looking for a hispanic, black woman but would settle for a man. His pick has to be loaded with electoral votes. So the pic will be from a battleground state that Romney feels will follow his vp pick (like Florida) or have a group of voters backing this pick.....like a Hispanic or black pick.

Last year, Marvel Comics killed off Peter Parker and replaced him with a new Spider Man that is half black, half Hispanic...Miles Morales. I think Glenn Beck said the dude was gay too.

So there you go. Not only would it pander to blacks, Hispanics, and gays...it would attract comic book nerds of all ethnicities. Romney-SpiderMan 2012. Boom. Game-changer.
