It simply beggars belief, especially when he keeps saying that he is
open
to offering jobs to suitable Republicans. I assume she would continue

her position if she said the country needs her.


It's not true.


?? Has that been decided yet or are you just making Edgar feel better? LOL

I think Clinton would be a decent choice. She knows many of the foreign
leaders, and was certainly a rival of Obama.


One of the reasons Obama beat Clinton in the primaries was their
sharply different views on Foreign policy, and the war in Iraq,
especially. It simply would not make sense for Clinton to be Secretary
of State in the Obama Administration. Bill Clinton would actually make
more sense in many respects, but I don't think he would really be a
good pick, either. Bill Richardson would be excellent.

I'd prefer Richardson also, but I think Obama is trying to emulate Lincoln's
cabinet. I'm reading Team of Rivals right now. Fastinating.
