Rice For Vice?

She oversaw the darkest period in our foreign policy history and although she was probably just doing as ordered to gain power, that actually makes it worse. She chose power over honesty and was proven lacking. On the other hand, my guess is she's pretty moderate in general and I think we're safe from her hosting any prayer vigils for rain.

But this is going to live with her for a long time

I fail to see how that article would be damning to Rice. The intelligence community may have known that Al-Queda was planning a terrorist attack on U.S. interests but the who (other than Osama), what, where, and when was never known or fully understood. Most were expecting Osama to pull off an embassy attack but if we are going to play the blame game we shouldn't leave out President Clinton, who "let Bin Laden go" in the late 90's.

I think she's referencing Iraq and the non-existing WMDs, not 9/11.
