Sen. Clinton eyed as secretary of state
Sen. Clinton eyed as secretary of state

Quote:
CHICAGO – Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton is among the candidates that President-elect Barack Obama is considering for secretary of state, according to two Democratic officials in close contact with the Obama transition team.
Clinton, the former first lady who pushed Obama hard for the Democratic presidential nomination, was rumored to be a contender for the job last week, but the talk died down as party activists questioned whether she was best-suited to be the nation's top diplomat in an Obama administration.

What Hillary being Sec. of State, You don't think the clinton's endorcement was free do you?

This was the deal made. You'll be really surprsied when they nominate bill to be ambassador to the UN.

Oh... and Biden is a 1 term VP... guess who's taking his place.

This just aint gonna happen. Why not? Because what's in it for her?
Do you think a Clinton would want to be the administrator of obama's policies or be a senator and play with her own agenda?
I rest my case.

Are you kidding me. Of course it's going to happen. Hillary is not going to settle being just another Senator after everything that has happened. There was an article yesterday that suggested Hillary might become Majority Leader of the Senate. I can see this as well... Reid is an idiot, and it's hard for the dems to hide it.

There's no doubt Obama and the Clinton's made some kind of deal for the Clinton endorcement. Being Sec. of State gets her out of the Senate... and actually gives her a lot of authority. It gives a lot of foreign international experience that will a justify her nomination as VP for the retiring Joe Biden in 2012. The dems are playing chess right now.... I wonder if the republicans are paying attention.

Nah, there wasnt a deal between obama and clintons. They had to give that lukewarm endorsement (and that is all it was) or be accused of not being good little team player libs.
Now the thing about replacing Reid is quite interesting. Hmmmmmm. I think that would put her into better position to be a replacement for Biden than Sec of State.
Hillary must be about 60 now right? OK, she has one more shot in 8 years.
