Re: Hillary as Sec State
Good choice.
And its also a good way for Obama to create some good will toward the Hillary supporters who had wanted her to get the Democratic nomination. Next to VP, Secretary of State is probably the most prestigious position she could get in the Obama administration. I hope she accepts it.

Re: Hillary as Sec State
Well, I'm not a Hillary fan nor an Obama fan.
Be prepared for several years of things we just don't like and don't agree with.
But, in my opinion, Hillary is as qualified as anybody else, and probably more qualified than many others, for a position like that which is not too many heart beats away from the president.

As an act of loyalty, he should really consider John Kerry. Isn't he just as qualified for the position?

I am sorry, I haven't got a clue who he should pick.

I am biased and could be wrong.

Re: Hillary as Sec State
Now they're reporting that O is talking to Bill Richardson about Sec State.
They've downgraded their reporting to say she's under consideration and on the list w/Richardson and Kerry.
Looks like Baier jumped the gun a little. He did say "the offer is on the table and awaiting her response."
I agree, I think she's the best choice among the Dem's. He's taking a play out of ol' Abe's book and appointing his rivals to key positions. Keep your friends close, and your enemies closer. He neutralizes her and her friends on the Hill of he does this too.

The info got leaked by Obama's people yesterday. The NY Daily news was reporting this even before Brett Baier had it. Until Clinton accepted, they should have kept their mouth shut, because if the job goes to someone else, it'll be a little awkward on Hillary's part. And it could be seen as just another slight toward her. This is not being handled properly by O's people, IMO.

Yeah, I saw the news yesterday afternoon. Was kind of surprised nobody mentioned it on here. At least not that I've seen anyway. You're right, the way they're going about this is a little weird. Seems out of character. Maybe they figure she'll decline and then nobody can say they dissed her.
Funny, MSNBC just said she was offered the job and she's playing coy and leery of Biden. Maybe she's playing coy and they're hitting back by floating other names to save their own face and to put pressure on her.
