Partisan split intensifies Susan Rice nomination

Benghazi issue is sticking point for Cabinet bid

Republican senators said they remain deeply concerned over Rice’s statements about the Sept. 11 attack on the US diplomatic post in Benghazi, Libya, and suggested her motive was to help President Obama’s reelection chances.
