They won't be, but I'm still very sceptical that this will get anything more than a cursory mention in the press...

I don't know what positive press she would hope to generate.
To be honest, I don't understand her motivation doing this. At best, it's a waste of her time.I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891Comment

To go along with my point that the press will ignore this, how many people actually know that Kerry visited Assad in Damascus a few months ago?KH FOR OWNER!

Kerry's been rogue negotiating since 1972. It's a pattern."Just puttin on the foil" - Jeff Hanson

I know, I scratched my head when I head this to. We can always force our own flaged vessels through, as I would imagine any nation not wanting their economy to crash would also do.So the straits would be closed due to insurance.

She's trying to get an Admin that (at least until very recently) doesn't believe in the idea of diplomacy, to engage in it with a state that plays a fairly prominent role wrt our foreign policy needs. To engineer such pressure, it's helpful to discuss these needs with said state.To be honest, I don't understand her motivation doing this. At best, it's a waste of her time.
And at worst, it's what? Maybe you could provide an objection to the meeting that makes any sense whatsoever."Beware of the man who works hard to learn something, learns it, and finds himself no wiser than before.

I don't understand right wingers whose panties get in a twist from the idea of formal diplomatic relations with Syria, while Dear Leader's "renditions" to the very same country are nothing to get excited about..."Beware of the man who works hard to learn something, learns it, and finds himself no wiser than before.

I don't really care. Let her go. It's not as if she has the power to actually negotiate anything. It'll have as much impact as Kerry's visit.I make no bones about my moral support for [terrorist] organizations. - chegitz guevara
For those who aspire to live in a high cost, high tax, big government place, our nation and the world offers plenty of options. Vermont, Canada and Venezuela all offer you the opportunity to live in the socialist, big government paradise you long for. –Senator RubioComment

Or a potential Rice visit, for that matter. They send her off on a globe-trotting vacation without the power (or inclination) to do anything. It's kind of pathetic...I don't really care. Let her go.

Getting back to the original topic, Iran needs to hear some advice from Jon Stewart:
