Perry points out that among the major implications of this promotion of Rice are the following:
1. It illustrates a president (during his 2nd term) willing to stand up for his allies (SEE: The President's support for Chuck Hagel).
2. It will quiet critics of the diversity of Obama’s team (at least for awhile anyway)
3. It suggests Republicans have gained all they can politically from the fallout of the Benghazi attacks.

And #3 really has to bite with the Repubs because they surely thought they had the President on the ropes (AGAIN) only to discover (to their dismay AGAIN) that he's still very much standing and still very much President…lol.
