Ms Rice's career, which rose so fast ,is plunging back into obscurity, for reasons it is easy for anyone to understand. As secretary of state, she has mostly failed in grappling with a web of problems that she herself helped to create, as the part of Bush's inner circle of cronies, when she was turning out to be a notably weak national security adviser. Mr Powell presciently said of Iraq, "If you break it, you own it." That might serve as an epitaph for Ms Rice's career at the top of American policymaking. (The Economist)
