If we cannot stop her, maybe we can delay her

This is downright petty... Condoleezza Rice won the confirmation vote by 16 to 2 (John Kerry and Barbara Boxer if you weren't able to guess) Then, the Democrats delayed the approval until after President Bush's Inauguration. Condi was there but she was not there as confirmed Secretary of State, she was there as Condi in Limbo. Now, from CNN: Rice confirmation vote delayed bq. The confirmation of Secretary of State designate Condoleezza Rice has been postponed to next week. bq. Senate Democrats objected to a full Senate vote on Thursday, saying they wanted more time for floor speeches. This photo of her with Boxer is classic, Boxer looks soooo smug, like she is pulling off something really really big, pulling the wool over Condi's eyes and Condi is looking at her like: What???
