Well then it's obviously a democrat scheme to pave the way for Hillary in the coming election.

It's candy. Surely there are more important things the NAACP could be boycotting. If the candy were shaped like a burning cross or a black man made of regular chocolate being dragged behind a truck made of white chocolate I could understand the outrage and would share it. - Drosedars -
At this point, Bush would be retarded enough to appoint Condi, because she's a friend and loyal. He wouldn't have the class to appoint a successor on the Republican side who would be a clear frontrunner for 2008.
But I seriously doubt a resignation is in the works. It would bring up the spectre of Spiro Agnew.If you look around and think everyone else is an *******, you're the *******.Comment

I like that link that said that Condi being appointed VP was an extra rumour spread by Cheney to make sure the repugs couldn't get rid of him, just in case they ended up with a black woman who was pro-choice as President!!Jon Miller: MikeH speaks the truth
Jon Miller: MikeH is a shockingly revolting dolt and a masturbatory urine-reeking sideshow freak whose word is as valuable as an aging cow paddy.

There has been lots of talk in recent years about Condi being a good choice to run in '08. This could be a tactical move. Since Cheney isn't going to run, elevate Condi so she has a better position from which to run in '08, and she can be the VP who keeps the legacy going.

Condi wouldn't make it past New Hampshire. She's never held elective office and hasn't been involved in domestic policy. Think of it this way - Would you have wanted Madeline Allbright or Henry Kissenger (if they were Americans) elevated to the VP spot? I think not.If you look around and think everyone else is an *******, you're the *******.Comment

More to the point, nobody's going to get through '08 by defending the Bush administration, as Condi would have to. The biggest thing the GOP has going for it in '08 -- okay, okay, besides being the majority party -- is that it none of its candidates will be forced to run on the administration's record.Originally posted by Timexwatch

Personally, I'd love to see Condi as Veep, because then the Bushies might go back to thinking that the State Dept is irrelevant and appoint another token moderate like Powell -- I'm thinking Richard Luger -- to run it."I have as much authority as the pope.

Though, really, what we want is a SecState who actually cares about the Foreign Service. Most don't. Ironically, given how liberal the Foreign Service is, the two most beloved SecState's in recent memory were Powell and George Shultz, because they were great administrators who treated the diplomatic corps as integral to the mission of State.
