Quote o' The Day

Peggy Noonan on a criticism that Condoleezza Rice doesn't "give off sparks of sexuality": "We don't want a secretary of state running around giving off sparks of sexuality, do we. We don't want a secretary of state giving off sparks at all. We want a nice, quiet, calming, competent, sophisticated, even-keeled person to do a good, solid, nonshowy job."
