I find it fascinating that Senator Leahy, to his credit, and not Senator Jeffords voted to confirm Condi Rice as Secretary of State. Poor Senator Jeffords seems so frustrated and negative with his lot in life. Perhaps its time he moved on.
"Nonetheless, some Democrats who voted for her said they did so with reservations. 'My vote in favor of Dr. Rice is difficult to explain,' said Senator Patrick J. Leahy of Vermont. 'It is more a product of a belief than a cold analysis of her record. I believe that Dr. Rice is capable of learning from her mistakes and changing her ways. That she will rise to this new challenge. That she can be a good secretary of state.'"
