I consider her a person of integrity gifted with intelligence....find me another like her in today's political mess!

I was not a fan of Rice as Secretary of State. She would have been fine if the Soviet Union were still in existence. But it wasn't and I felt she wasn't able to adjust her foreign policy views to a post dual-superpower world.

I think Elizabeth Warren is better in the Senate at this point.

I think Clinton would be fine as President, but she's not a good candidate; she doesn't have her husband's or Obama's charisma. I dunno. Then again, she can probably handle whatever the GOP campaign throws at her; she's had plenty of practice. It still boggles my mind that Kerry didn't come back with both barrels over the Swift Boat crap. Someone else who I think would have been a good President, but was a terrible candidate.

LOL talk about delusional....She will likely be on trial or already on her way to prison by election day 2016. And she may prefer that to dealing with this pitbull (who will be on the main stage next time):

Carly fiorina?!?! Lol
She's the pits, not a pitbull.


When there was speculation that Fiorina may run as McCain’s VP pick in 2008, one former employee of Fiorina’s said:

I said when Carly was mentioned as a possible running mate with John McCain, he’s a war hero and former POW. I think he’s suffered enough already


As for Clinton....not a fan at all.

Cut RBE a break. As his recently ended love affair with Trump has shown us, he has a soft spot for rich kids with poor business skills.

From the Gawker comment thread:

Trump: "The female moderator questioned me about my history of misogynistic comments because she was on her period.”
