Its also interesting this surprise at, or notability of conservative smart black folk, women. The rarity of the combo. So ridiculously off topic if race or gender comes into play here- but good theater. I watched some coverage on BET, some current events program, where they discussed whether you could support Condi as a sister, even if you might not dig her policy leanings. A coworker listening here with me, who's a middleaged black woman, is pretty convinced that Rice will be used as the handy goat here- is waiting for it.

I was thinking the same thing.

I think she's simply a team player. Its the nature of the team that's curious.

*shakes head* I'm still trying to wrap my mind around that one. Black conservatism...funny. It does exist, I know because I grew up in a pretty conservative family, but politically...I can't do it.
And yeah, I know that the Dems aren't all that either, but better than the Repubs, IMO.
My dad thinks blacks should have their own political party. I'm not holding my breath on that one. Just like with anything that "we" try to do on our own...somehow, something gets sabatoged and goes right to hell.
