So if Condi is the VP for the Reps, does this hurt us?
This was floated by Tweety prior to the speech. I don't think Condi is interested in this given her previous statements, but if she ran as a VP candidate, on its face this would seem to hurt the Dems, regardless of who won the nomination. She might take blacks and women from either Barrack or Hillary.

That would be the calculation anyways...

2. No, I don't think so. Condi is irrelevant.

4. We might lose the android vote...
I'd love to see her on the ticket. Great way to tie many of the Bush administration's colossal foreign policy failures to the new Republican ticket.

5. That would be a wild factor in the general, wouldn't it?
To be honest, I never considered that.

7. I've been hearing about it for a while now. I think it's probably not a problem
We're bound to have sound bites of her saying things that they knew weren't true.

17. She isn't a Politician
I just can't see her as someone who could get a crowd fired up, press the flesh, kiss a baby or scarf down the corn/tamales/cheese steaks of campaigning. She comes across as a delicate intellectual, hovering gently over the fray on the fragrant effluvia of her ineffableness, gently alighting to earth only when there's a really good war or shoe sale on. There's no way she could ever live among us grubby mortals or ask us for our vote.

19. Obama might vote for her.
He believes she is highly qualified as SOS which is in the succession line.
