I enjoyed the rest of the post and saw nothing worth commenting on (i.e. nothing I disagreed with or thought needed special embellishment. :-).
But I thought I'd add my inflation-adjusted 2 cents on this. I'm also VERY impressed with Dr. Rice. My guess is that she's going to be too busy over the next 4 years to do any campaigning, so getting her at the top of the ticket will probably be impossible in '08. But, can you imagine what having her on the bottom of the ticket would do? Whooeee!! Of course, Dick Morris has practically done everything short of starting a "draft Rice" organization. > Despite my other views of the Bush Administration, I'm utterly fascinated > with Dr. Condolessa Rice.
