With a few days before major Republican primaries in states such as Florida and Ohio, the Republican establishment has turned their attention to creative ways to defeat conservative businessman Donald J. Trump, who appears to be unstoppable.

Now, it’s been confirmed that a major group of Republican donors and insiders are working hard to convince former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice (a Republican) to run for President!

1. Thus endeth the GOP...

I cannot imagine that Condi would run though. Trump would destroy her on her involvement in setting up the Iraq war.

[Major Nikon]

37. If not Condi, I think it will be someone

Even if nobody runs a spoiler, the chances of the GOP winning a presidential election are just going to keep getting less and less simply due to the demographics which are working against them. The requirement of having to secure increasingly higher percentages of the white vote is untenable.

I've said it before. The inability of the GOP to win a presidential election will destroy the party as we know it. They will never survive as a regional only party.

[Xipe Totec]

2. Oh. Please, please, please, please!

[JonLeibowitz]

31. Sanders would wipe the floor with good ol' Condi. I would love it, though a Trump-Sanders contest

would be my preference.

[malaise]

38. with a cherry on top

[JFKDem62]

3. They are desperate and dreaming if they think she has a chance. nt

[ohnoyoudidnt]

16. They know better than to think she has a chance of winning.

A Republican independent would be more about making sure Trump loses even if that means a Democrat gets elected. I certainly didn't expect Rice to be the person for the job. Romney would get more votes.

[JFKDem62]

36. Good point, and Romney appears eager and willing. nt

[ebayfool]

4. Oh good grief! A stake through the heart can't keep these people in the ground! n/t

[gollygee]

5. I would not be at all surprised if they run a third party candidate

If Trump ends up with the nomination. He's too far out there for even most Republicans.

[oldandhappy]

30. Have been thinking the same.

For all their fear that the Donald would run 3rd party -- since he has hijacked the party would be possible that the party itself would run someone 3rd party. What hoot.

[rurallib]

6. Then she could hire George W. (aka her husband) as SOS

but she really wants to be the NFL commish

[surrealAmerican]

7. That's just what this race needed ...

... a war criminal!

[mountain grammy]

10. I'm biting my tongue...

[JackRiddler]

22. I know, I know.

[MuseRider]

23. ! n/t

[daleanime]

28. Me too...

[Kalidurga]

27. You mean....an...nevermind

[Person 2713]

8. Wtf

[Xipe Totec]

9. High Lies - Dedicated to Condosleezza Rice

(With apologies to John Gillespie Magee)

Oh, I have slipped the surly bonds of truth,
And cast my lies from crimson-lipsticked lips;
Onward I've lied, and weaved a rambling myth
Of grateful crowds ...and claimed a hundred things
You have not swallowed...weaved, demurred and spun
Fading into sullen silence. Hov'ring there,
I've chased the shouting media along, and flung
My eager crap through endless streams of wind.
Up, up, the false, delirious flaming lies
I've topped the biggest ones with easy grace
When neither Rove, nor even Cheney could.
And while with soiled, uplifted heels I've trod
The pure untrespassed sanctity of truth...
...put out my hand, and poked the eye of God.


Oldie, but goodie...

[bkkyosemite]

11. I think they just should have Kissenger run...oh wait is he a natural..well ya know

[Stinky The Clown]

12. They want WHO to run??

[Wilms]

19. Trumps plane could fit on the deck. n/t

[leftofcool]

13. Run Condi run!

[brush]

14. This has to be a joke

There is so much low-hanging fruit to pluck from her baggage tree, such as quote — "But we don't want the smoking gun to be a mushroom cloud"; or the time she was in NYC shopping for shoes and had to be scolded by a New Yorker to get back to Washington as New Orleans was flooding and people were dying; or her Fruedian slip about W being her husband.

I say by all means bring it then. Instead of an example of deconstructionist architecture, it'll be an example of how to deconstruct a political party as Trump will not go quietly in the face of the nomination being hijacked from him.

[LittleBlue]

15. An unindicted war criminal is their best chance?

She and her beloved Chimperor should be at the Hague facing war crimes trials. Stanford will forever be tarnished by her presence.

[book_worm]

17. She won't.

[Marie Marie]

18. Yes because that George W. connection worked so well for Jeb!

These people never learn.

[nadinbrzezinski]

20. Ohh boy they are desperate to give the wh to democrats and stop trump

for once I am going to go, go for it. Do your patriotic duty.

[MuseRider]

21. Ahhh another use

for my red (bloody) gloves!

[Iggo]

24. They just endured 8 years of a black man in the White House...

...and they're scared to DEATH of another 8 years with a woman in the White House.

So they're going to run a black woman for president?

This I gotta see.

[Albertoo]

25. Colin Powell would stand a chance. Dr. Rice, not so much.

Dr. Rice was the foreign policy expert who couldn't guess invading Iraq would be a disaster.
Top qualification, expertise and job credentials.

[DarthDem]

26. One of the Most Overrated "Intellectuals" in Washington

Virtually everything she does or opines on turns out to be wrong.

[IDemo]

29. Mushroom Clown?

You know her hus will be there for her.

[Xipe Totec]

33. Touché!

[L. Coyote]

32. I heard they are trying to get a Blue Dog Democrat to run as a Republican.

Because it is their last hope of every having another Republican in the White House. But hey, you know, rumors.....

[Laura PourMeADrink]

35. Interesting. We were just talking about Trump and if his right wing

bigot approach was an act - and if he had decided to do the same thing - only on the Dem side. If he had changed his schtick to all of our core values - but with a business twist. Guess it's too late, huh. HAHAHA

[Jim Lane]

39. Good point. I could see them putting Webb on the ticket, in either position. (n/t)

[Laura PourMeADrink]

34. NOOOOOOOO not Mushroom Cloud..nooooooooo nt
