“Condoleezza Rice is back. Nearly four years after leaving the White House, the former secretary of state is injecting herself into the center of the heated 2012 political season. She's raising money for female congressional candidates, dishing endorsements in key races and is poised to become even more involved in Republican politics than at any moment since she left the Bush White House,” Politico says. “Tonight, she'll take on the full glare of the national spotlight with a prime-time speech here at the Republican National Convention. A Rice aide said the former secretary of state would outline her view of American exceptionalism while calling on Republicans to rally around Mitt Romney.”
Town Hall’s Guy Benson reports that Clint Eastwood will be making his way to the convention and might be the mystery speaker.

Good Morning to all.
Shame on you NBC.
One of the best speeches coming form Arthur Davis and you do not televise entirely.
You NBC are the biggest Racist of all. You do not walk the talk. Is it because he was a black American that spoke at the DNC in 2008 as a Democrat and now he has joined the Republicans.
Yes the Republicans that you call Racist. I was watching you while my husband was looking at other channels.
Shame on You, and those in this FR that spew hatred.
Don't blame NBC....Blame yourself....it was on other channels!
I personally watched the bulk on CSPAN and flipped back and forth to CNN for some commentary.
Concerned citizen has posted this same drivel on every thread this morning and he's been told the same thing on every post. If you don't like what you're seeing turn to Fox (aka republican propaganda machine).
It's so ironic, Republicans have a view on American exceptionalism, but it's the Democrats who fulfill that vision.
It was a Democratic president who presided over World War II, a Democratic President who helped create Medicare, Social Security and unemployment insurance, a Democratic President who set the agenda of putting an astronaut on the moon, a Democratic President who advanced civil rights for all, a Democratic President who stopped the genocide in Bosnia, and a Democratic President who saw us through the worst economic collapse since the Great Depression and who set us on the path of health insurance for all the citizens.
Amy,
Yes it was a Democratic President. My old Democratic Party and not the progressive/Liberals that have hijacked the democratic Party of today.
What are you talking about? (I know I'm going to regret asking.)
and its the new republican taliban party which has spit on the constitution denying americans the right to vote under the false primise of voter fraud, that my fellow americans is unpatriotic and tyranny.
Social Security, Medicare and unemployment insurance are way more radical and "socialist" that anything Obama has proposed.
I like that Amy. I'm still laughing.
Ms. Rice needs to explain the failed Foreign Policies of "Brainless Bush," and her support for the Policies of Torture in Iraq. When she was the Secretary OF State working with "Chump-Change-Cheney," and "Rummy." Did she know that there were NO Weapons of Mass Destruction in Iraq? Did she support the "Brainless Bush" Policies of Waterboarding? The massive amount of information that Ms. Rice is purposely covering up would be sending her to a International War Crimes Trial. At that trial standing next to her would be President Bush, VP Cheney, and Rummy. That is fact! America will not hear this from her tonignt because, Ms. Rice has "Poltically" moved on. It is a great shame that the brave military veterans of Iraq and Afganistan are not able to. Then there is "Richie Rich" Ryan. He will not be talking about his horrible record on Medicare, the rights of all women, and his very unfair Economic Plan. He will not talk much about his plan to swoop down on Medicare, and put it into the greedy hands of Wall Street "Speculators." In a very quiet room the Wall Street "Speculators," and the other rich friends of "Romulian Romney" are toasting Champaign.
The only one with any reall intellegence and poise will be Dr. Rice. She's smart and not bad looking. Unfortunately as an African-American woman(advantage taken where and when one can) she rose to prominance in the most corrupt and incompetent Administration in US history. That taints her integrety and will for a long time. Were she not tainted by the Dubya crowd I wouldn't mind seeing her more active in US politics. She's kind of in the same sinking rowboat as Jeb Bush. Because of ties to Dubya their chances of advancement are poor at best.
