I love her to pieces and I am very proud how she is representing the US over in Europe. I would vote for her in a instant for president....unless she is less conservative than what I know of her. :D

[Ninjaman09]

I see I'm not the only one who reads through all the drudgereport.com articles. :D

Yes, I like her quite a bit and wouldn't have the slightest reservation about voting her into office.

I like her too, but if she ran against Hillary she would loose. Hillary has a name well known to everyone, Condi is pretty much unknown to the average voter. Giuliani may be the republicans best bet at winning against Hillary, though a lot of conservatives don't like him because of the stance on certain issues (like supporting partial-birth abortion).

Condi vs. Hillary would be an awesome race, that's for sure, and a win-win on so many levels. Not sure which one would be better for the country ultimately. Guess we'll have to wait for the debates ;) -- although having Bill back in the White House would be amusing...

I'm quite fond of Condi, I've seen a lot of the speeches she has done on her recent visit across Europe and the ME. She has an excellent grasp of issues, is an excellent public speaker, is clearly highly intelligent.

she is well spoken and well-educated...

she also spins b.s. very nicely (note comments wrt iraq and wmd's over the past coupla years)

but for her unabashedly spindiferous b.s. she would be well qualified for running for office

If it was between Hillary and Condi...I just wouldn't vote. Neither of them are qualified to lead this country IMO.

that is a sentiment we can agree on...

who else is likely next time round? mc cain/gingrich/jeb are the big three besides for the republicans... the dems have hilary and a hail mary on their side...

[saturnotaku]

Jesus, unless the Republicans can pull a miracle candidate out of their rears, it looks like 2008-2012 are gonna be a nasty four years. Gotta make sure to enjoy W's second go-round.

What about McCain?

Umm, hate to say it, but if it came to a question of my vote, this isn't exactly a quality I would be looking for in a candidate to the presidency. I would rather see a president who would be a straight shooter, and who would be inclined to tell things as they are... Admittedly, I'm not most fond of PR, as an industry and in general however...

That said, we are talking about politics here...with all the baggage that is common to politics.

I would have a very hard time voting for Giuliani but I would have to since Hilary was the other option. I don't want Giuliani as president.

He is a fruitcake and not a conservative. I don't like him.

[Tuffgong4]

McCain is the only person I would vote for to be president and if he's not there in 4 years I don't vote.



All the candidates and presidents since and including Jimmy Carter have been morons and moneymen so I don't see much hope in the future

All the candidates and presidents since and including Jimmy Carter have been morons and moneymen so I don't see much hope in the future and McCain is'nt? hes a media ****. he is sooo opertunistic its not even funny ...

[vampireuk]

she also spins b.s. very nicely

So do you, I guess you could run right? :p

[Sazar]

and McCain is'nt? hes a media ****. he is sooo opertunistic its not even funny ...

what politician is not?

from all the candidates on either side currently displayed, he is about the only one who is mainstream enough in his views to get my vote...

doesn't mean he's absolutely clean or perfect or anything... just the next best alternative as he has been the last 2 times round for me :)

[Raptorman]

I would vote for McCain.
Personally, I don't think the US is ready for a woman President, and neither Condi and definetely not Hillary make me feel like they have what it takes to be prez. McCain would be my choice for prez in '08, and I would have a hard time voting for Giuliani(sp?) if he ran.

[oldsk00l]

I dunno that I'd vote for Condi in good conscience. I'd vote for her in a heartbeat given the alternatives though.

God, I hope he decides to run! :)

[Son Goku]

McCain would likely get my vote if the opportunity presented itself...

But someone who's positive description could be that they can spin a story nicely; never really have been a fan of PR :D
