i am hoping that condi rice will be matched against hilary clinton
For the same reason that men like to watch girls fight? Say, mud wrestling or in a pool of jello? ;^)
Rice is a very nice lady but odds are she's a lesbian or a Vestal Virgin type like Harriet Myers. She hasn't been through the political process yet, she's always been above the fray.
Bush surrounds himself with women like that -- Rice, Myers and his old friend Karen Hughes, the one who left her husband and son in Texas to take care of him.
The Republican candidates will include John McCain, George Allen, Rudy Giuliani, and Mitt Romney, all of whom have been through the bruising, brutal political process umpteen times and have teeming hordes of loyal minions willing to lay down their lives for their candidate.
Hillary has the same, they ostensibly worked for her husband for many years and just switched names but it's no secret that many always loved her more than him.
You see, it's not just about admiration, it's about love. You have to be loveable, capable of inspiring people to work like demons with no reward just because they love you.
I imagine it's different in, say, China, where being the right person in the right place in the right time is all that's needed? But such are the vicissitudes of democracy. |
