Betting Pool. How Long Before Condi "Fried" Rice Resigns? |
|
1. She will resign tonight on 60 Minutes?
2. She will resign within a week?
3. Within two weeks?
4. They'll keep her on to the bitter end.

If she leaves, it will be perceived as a Bush failure. Once she's gone, she'll also be free to talk.

4. Maybe in a month or two |
|
And only if the heat continues to build over the Clarke thing will Rice be offered as a sacrificial lamb, if it fades away then no.

She'll stay until after the November 2004 election. It would look bad if she left before then.

7. Actually, because she's a woman AND an african american, I don't |
|
think Bush would be hurt significantly if he let her go. His base will shrug and say, poor fella, we tried to tell him, but that's what happens when you have to put up with affirmative action.
The rest of america will unmercifully dump on her and think "good riddance."

Maybe she is going to get a head start so she doesn't have to wait for a moving van. LOL

10. She won't be fired- Condi will "step down" for personal reasons. |
|
Bush wouldn't publicly fire one of his token minority administration officials.

14. She'll stay until Jan 20, 2005 |
|
because she's protecting Dear Leader. She's a glorified, overpaid, babysitter and has NO business being the National Security Advisor.

I'd love to be wrong on this one, but having her leave would allow her to talk openly about chimpy. Then we'd see a small plane crash or an od in a hotel room.

18. she may have a breakdown |
|
it's been rumored she's been singing a certain song lately...
They're coming to take me away, ha-haaa! To the happy home with trees and flowers and chirping birds And basket weavers who sit and smile And twiddle their thumbs and toes And they're coming to take me away, ha-haaa! To the funny farm, where life is beautiful all the time And I'll be happy to see those nice young Men in their clean white coats and They're coming to take me away!
i actually saw napoleon the XIV live about 35 years ago!
