Condoleezza Rice would make a 'wonderful' vice-president, says Palin

Paul Harris in New York

Speculation that Condoleezza Rice is being vetted by Mitt Romney as a possible running mate has been ratcheted up after Rice got an enthusiastic thumbs-up from Sarah Palin.

Palin, the former Alaska governor and John McCain's 2008 vice-presidential pick, gave Rice her backing in a move that is expected to fuel the rumour mill and continue debate over whether the former secretary of state would return to political life.

"She (Rice) has much more experience than our sitting president does today," Palin told Fox News host Greta Van Sustren.

Palin added that she believed Rice would make a "wonderful" vice-president if the Republicans were to reclaim the White House in November's election.

She always has to spout off about every subject.

Did anyone ask Palin whether she should have a problem supporting a Pro-Choice candidate? How would she address that?

Don't think it would go over well with the Republican base. Afterall, they made Romney fire his foreign policy adviser, Richard Grenell, for being gay.

with the black vote. They seem to have forgotten her shopping and Spamalot outting while others were drowning. She's not that well liked.

That sort of thing only matters when the candidate is a Democrat. A Republican can be a dog-molesting felon and they'll still vote for him.
