TotallyOz Posted July 1, 2012 Posted July 1, 2012 Bill Maher did a great shtick this week and offered up all the possible running mates and concluded he should be Mitt's VP nominee. At least with Bill, we might get legalization of weed passed. Quote
TotallyOz Posted July 14, 2012 Posted July 14, 2012 Current rumor is that Condi Rice may be at the top of the list. Quote
Guest EXPAT Posted July 14, 2012 Posted July 14, 2012 except the right wing had a seizure today upon hearing that rumor since she is partially pro-choice. They would not like that in the base. Quote
Members TampaYankee Posted July 14, 2012 Members Posted July 14, 2012 Current rumor is that Condi Rice may be at the top of the list. No way!! That was put out to change the conversation from MItt's Bain tenure problems. No other reason. It didn't work, especially after she shot it down and wingers did too. A poor transparent attempt at topic change. Romney remains on a roll. Quote
AdamSmith Posted July 14, 2012 Posted July 14, 2012 Word now is that Condi is off the list because she is (more or less, even if only lukewarmly) pro-choice. Besides the fact that, as you say, she herself made clear the idea of running for VP, in fact anything "political" rather than "policy," nauseates her. Quote

She has never shown any strong political feathers in her presence in both Bush admins unless it was tied to her professional policy positions. Also, there is the proverbial 'other shoe' that might get dropped were she to venture out on political seas. The one that AC just jettisoned in the last few weeks. Quote
