KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Is Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice campaigning to be John McCain’s running mate? If so, Mr. McCain, the presumptive Republican presidential nominee, said on Sunday that he had not noticed.

“I missed those signals,” Mr. McCain told reporters on his campaign plane en route to Kansas City.

Nonetheless, Mr. McCain took a few moments to compliment Ms. Rice. “I think she’s a great American, I think there’s very little that I can say that isn’t anything but the utmost praise for a great American citizen, who served as a role model to so many millions of people in this country and around the world,” Mr. McCain said, adding that “her overall record is very, very meritorious.”

Mr. McCain was responding to questions from reporters about comments made on the ABC program “This Week With George Stephanopoulos” by Dan Senor, a former military spokesman for coalition forces in Baghdad. Mr. Senor said Ms. Rice spoke last week before an unusual forum for a secretary of state: a meeting of economic conservatives led by Grover Norquist, president of Americans for Tax Reform.

“Condi Rice has been actively, actually in recent weeks, campaigning for this,” Mr. Senor said.

Ms. Rice has said she was not interested in being vice president.

Mr. McCain, who has been critical of the Bush administration’s handling of Iraq, told reporters that Ms. Rice, who was national security adviser during the first year and a half of the conflict, bore some responsibility for the management of the war.

Also on Sunday, Mr. McCain said he would release his medical records from 2000 to 2008 by May.

It is unfathomable that people are barely cognoscente of how badly Rice is at her job. More countries hate us now, than at any other time in our history. Sure, the position bushie put her in makes it difficult to secure friends in the international community, but still, as our countries premier spokesman (spokeswoman, technically) it is her job to maintain favorable relations. If she appears on the ticket, and eventually wins, a message will go out to rest of world, and it won't be a pretty one. It will say precisely what gazelle uttered: "4 more years of the same failing philosophy."
