Late Thursday evening, Mitt Romney's presidential campaign launched a new fundraising drive, 'Meet The VP' -- just as Romney himself has narrowed the field of candidates to a handful, sources reveal.
And a surprise name is now near the top of the list: Former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice!
The timing of the announcement is now set for 'coming weeks'.

It was Condi who received two standing ovations at Romney's Utah retreat a few weeks ago, and everyone left with her name on their lips.
Rice made an extended argument for American leadership in the world.
In recent days, she emailed supporters:
"2012 is perhaps a turning point for the United States."
"The upcoming elections loom as one of the most important in my lifetime," she warned. "I'm very often asked to speak about our current foreign policy and the challenges that lie before us. However, we, as a country, are not going to be able to address any of those international challenges unless we first get our domestic house in order."

Get ready to start looking for somebody else to vote for,then. Condi is his best choice to win because she would divide the united black voter block,as well as draw in all the "white guilt" voters that put Obummer over the top the last time.
Plus she is smart and travels in the same social and financial circles as Rombama. He will be comfortable around her and so will his handlers.

She would do no such thing. Blacks are overwhelmingly Democrats. They would view Rice on the ticket as nothing more than a cynical ploy.
If Romney wants a bold pick, he'd be better off choosing New Mexico Governor Susana Martinez, South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley, or Tennessee Congressman Marsha Blackburn.
I personally like Blackburn. She's bright, articulate, attractive, and a Tea Party favorite. She would help Romney close the gap with women. I like her a great deal.

Yeah,because we all know that black women would never vote for another black woman,and that black women have zero influence in black communities,huh?
Good thinking!

You are either stupid or delusional if you think that a black Republican is going to split the black vote, as you stated in your original assertion.
Whether in prison or on welfare, blacks are first and foremost wards of the state. It has been bred into them for generations. They are not going to abandon that mentality very easily.

That is EXACTLY what I think.
Especially given how disappointed a lot of blacks are with Barry.

Big deal. You are usually wrong.
Being insane doesn't give you an advantage.
