I would love to see Condi as a candidate, not only because she will guarantee a Dem victory but also for the historical significance. Maybe they think, Hillary voters will switch over to vote a woman in as VP. The other side of the coin is that the people not comfortable with voting for an AFrican-American will stay home and that could be as many as 20% of the potential Republican voters.
It sounds like a Hail Mary pass but hey, what other choices do they have?
