I see someone put up a quote from Sen. Boxer about Rice being "qualified". Rice may have more of an understanding of foreign policy than a layperson, but she hardly has the foreign policy experience one would expect of a credible nominee for Secretary of State (again, outside of her two decades of experience studying a regime that no longer exists, communist russia).

I think Boxer was being a bit of an apogolist there, saying that for fear of being branded as being opposed to Rice on some personal level (or worse yet, on a racial level). If pressed, I doubt Boxer could list anything from Rice's resume that makes her anywhere near the best candidate for Secretary of State.
