YouTube Description
as posted by the channel"Now that UN Ambassador Susan Rice has withdrawn her name from secretary of state consideration, the conspiracy theory that Republicans targeted her to force President Obama to name Sen. John Kerry instead, to open up a Massachusetts U.S. Senate seat for the recently defeated Sen. Scott Brown, is alive and well and ricocheting across the Internet.
Which doesn't mean it's true. What is true, however, is that Rice is out of the picture and Kerry is now a leading candidate."*
After a Republican campaign to shut down Susan Rice as a likely Secretary of State, she has bowed out, vowing not to accept nomination. But what vested interest do Republicans have in assuring Rice not take the position so John Kerry can become the next likely candidate for the position? Cenk Uygur breaks it down and explains the difference between Democratic and Republican strategies.
