I'm not exactly a Hilary fan, but I don't see anything terribly wrong with the decision. Your thoughts?

she's a woman, they put evil in a powerful position

I'm not much a fan either, but I think it was a good idea. Better than making her the VP pick. <<; Who knows how that would've gone.

He's trying to be Lincoln, and it will blow up in his face. You can't have a cabinet where someone is constantly trying to outshine and usurp you. He'll have two of his rivals for the nomination in his inner circle. Might as well bring in Edwards and Richardson while he's at it.

Thank GOD she won't be my Senator anymore.

I'm lukewarm about it. On the one hand I think Hilldog is somewhat qualified for the position and indicates that Obama seriously intends to compromise with people who had run against him and don't necessarily agree with him. That being said, I'm not sure I enjoy the thought of Hillary Clinton having any position in Obama's cabinet after the holdup she caused in the primaries even though she was all but mathematically out of the running, bringing about more division in the democratic party and suggesting that she would rather see herself in power than work with others to ultimately change her goals.

We'll see how this goes.

You gave Inui his first (and last?) sexual experience, didn't you? That's historic.

lol He is bringing in Richardson.

Hillary was probably the most moderate Democrat running for president due to her Southern roots. This choice is actually good, imo. It's not a left-wing nutjob.

Because they're definitely going to be vying for it instead of doing their jobs. Don't make silly judgments like that just yet, because comments like that are likely to blow up in your face. The man's not even president yet, and all the fussing needs to stop. We have a president and he's not Dubbya. We should be thankful and not whine. Just saying.

On the topic of Hillary Clinton becoming Secretary of State, I can't say I'm really surprised. I didn't particularly like her, but I can say she'll probably do a decent job, I guess. I don't exactly know how well she can handle foreign policy, but I'd rather have faith in the future of this country.

With history as our guide, whenever Clinton had to choose between her personal ambitions and the good of the Democratic Party, ambition usually won out. A lot of the stuff McCain got to use against Obama, Reverend Wright, Bill Ayers, Michelle's inane comment about being proud of her country, most of it was first used by Clinton. She conceivably could have lost him the election. The fact that she endorsed him after she lost means nothing.

I wouldn't be surprised if Hillary bartered for this position in exchange for her support in the election. That's not a crack against the Democrats, Lieberman probably did the same thing. It's just politics as usual.

On second thought, you said what I think much better than I would have. Agreed on all points.

bad move on the democrats part. If Obama really wanted to choose a good secretary of state or secretary of defense, he should go with Powell, especially after the guy got stabbed in the back by his own party and he was forced to retire out of disgrace. And very few people can beat a 4 star generals experience in runnig a country. Plus Obama really owes him one for the endorsement. And if they really wanted to put hillary in a good place, then it should be on the supreme court. Two justices will most likely retire within Obama's first term, so he should have put her there. With that position, she could be affecting decisions that are very important to our nation for easily 30 years. A much better deal for democrats in my opinion
