Can Condoleezza Rice Emancipate Herself from Bush?

As the disastrous Bush administration drags down its members, only one of them, Condoleezza Rice, has what it takes to survive politically. Ironically, the president's close confidante, who bears part of the responsibility for all of the administration's crises, is the only one who stands a chance of scoring a comeback.

-------------------------

The article makes a valid case for why we have not seen the last of Condi Rice.

Something tells me we may see her again...2012 perhaps?

I still would LOVE to see a Presidential debate between Condi and Hillary.

And I still think there is a good chance I might get my wish.

She is a smart women. If she wanted to continue a political career she could. Just not in 2008.

Oh yeeeech baaaf Gag.

Kindasleazy Rice is a morally bankrupt human being and someone who I hope will never be able to run for office. She has always been GWB's bag lady and I am sure nearly every country in the world will be glad to see the last of her. Even the link states "If there is anyone, besides Bush, who ought to be held accountable for the failings of the current administration, it is Rice. For the past eight years, she has been the president's closest advisor, serving first as national security advisor and then as secretary of state."

She should have stuck with playing the piano, something she is good at, and something where she cannot damage other people with.

If there is any justice in the world, she will be sent to the Hague along with many others in GWB&co.

Condi Rice has no shortage of brains, but its a gift misused as too much power corrupted absolutely. The extent of her crimes will not be fully known until the next administration open up the files in the NSA and State departments.

it's a moot point insofar as Condi has given every single indication possible that she has NO interest in having a political career.

Still she'd be preferable to intellectually challenged Palin.

She would have made a great VP choice.

If Hillary won, I think she probably would have been. What other black republican would Mccain have picked?
