Comments about ‘Clinton buzz on overdrive after meeting’

Don't do it, Barack! Don't do it! With so many qualified people who are more loyal to the country than themselves, WHY THEM!?!?

I don't know whether a Clinton appointment as Secretary of State will come to pass but if it does, Clinton will be the latest in a long line of er Clintonites to join the Clinton Obama Administration. Perhaps I should not be so snarky. After all, the Clintonites are the last Democrats to people a Democratic Administration so it is natural that with the return of the Democrats to the White House, there should be a fair number of Clintonites coming on board. But this many? Amusing. So much for Change We Can Believe In, one can be forgiven for wondering which candidate really won the Iowa caucus back in the snows of January. Oh, and despite the derision of lobbyists during the Presidential campaign, we see that at least one Clintonite lobbyist is joining the Obama White House. Imagine that. Betcha there will be others. Because no absurd story would be complete without Andrew Sullivan's involvement in it, consider this post in which Barack Obama's Unofficial Press Secretary praises the Hillary choice because, left to fester in the Senate, Clinton will plot against the president if he doesn't actively seek her support.

Hillary Clinton will do very well in any position that President elect Obama asks her to fill, be it Secretary of State or any other Cabinet position. Don't sell Hillary Clinton short.
Hillary was not offered the Vice Presidency because it is a dead end job, the only roll played by the VP is that of adviser or waiting for the President to die. Oh yes President of the Senate another dead end job.

To SLMG: the term you use "roll", is what most folks will be eating with their turkey at Thanksgiving. However a "role" is what I think you meant.

I only offer this correction in the spirit of your knowing, or not, what you speak of in the rest of your post.

Hillary Clinton is bad-tempered, mean as a snake and quite selfish. She would not be my first choice as a diplomat to repair all that "hate" the Bush/Cheney administration created with the rest of the world.

Go Hilliary. You will do a great job is this is for you.

WE THE PEOPLE wanna see these emails from Hillary & Obama now. There all "open public knowledge." Did you know that?. Inquireing minds wanna know right now beforw their deleted. Obama is the second president to grapple with the idea of this self-imposed isolation, many Democrat contributors and other observers were worried about his prospects against Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton, they reached out to him directly. Obama had changed his cellphone number, so e-mail remained the most reliable way of communicating directly with him. "Say goodbye to BlackBerry?" Yes he can?, maybe? - Restrictions on presidential e-mail mean Obama may have to sign off." Sorry, Mr. President. Please surrender your BlackBerry. Those are seven words President-elect Barack Obama is dreading but expecting to hear, friends and advisers say, when he takes office in 65 days. Obama has been all but addicted to his BlackBerry. The device has rarely been far from his side on most days, it was fastened to his belt to provide a singular conduit to the outside world as the bubble around him grew tighter and tighter throughout his campaign.
