Jeralyn is reporting that this is exactly what Robert Novak was saying on FOX last night:
Bob Novak just said on Fox News that Condoleeza Rice might well be John McCain’s running mate.
Is that to provide a hedge against both Obama and Hillary? Or another pundit’s attempt to reduce the presidential contest to race and gender?
Now speaking of racism, this really stinks of it, along with sexism. So McCain would only pick Condi because she is a black woman and not because she is qualified? I hope this is another Novak wet dream, as I do have a little respect for John McCain and would hate to think he would insult women, blacks and the office of the vice-President by such a poorly calculated political move.
