Veepstakes Part Three: Condoleezza Rice

Could Foreign policy drive Mitt Romney’s Vice Presidential pick? If so, could former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice be running mate potential?

FOX News Radio’s Jared Halpern takes a closer look at Condoleezza Rice in our ongoing series “Veepstakes”:

Audio clip:

She’s repeatedly denied having any interest in the job, but former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice energized Romney donors with a closed-door speech in June. Rice would bring a wealth of Foreign policy experience to a Republican ticket. But, political opponents might point out she was national security advisor on 9/11, and she claimed Iraq had weapons of mass destruction during the run-up to that war. And, when asked about potential running mates, Romney made this promise to a South Carolina forum.

Romney: “I’d would expect they’d all be pro-life and pro-traditional marriage.”

Rice has described herself as mildly pro-choice.

    I think Condoleezza Rice is the perfect running mate for Mitt Romney..She is exactly what he needs..She compliments him in every way..And her strengths and committment to the United States of America, will help bring our country back to the great nation it was before this president took office…We need to win in November to save this country from further distruction..This is exactly the ticken to do it

    Romney and Rice…That is a win, win, win for the America
