Several news outlets are spreading the rumor that Hillary Clinton is in the running to be nominated to Obama’s cabinet as Secretary of State. Democratic officials are confirming that Clinton is in the running for the job. Others apparently in the running include Senator John Kerry, New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson, and former Senate Leader Tom Daschle.
Hillary clearly has some contacts she can lean on, especially if you consider Bill’s 8 years as President. There is no word on if she would want the job or not if she is offered it. It might help patch some of the rift that has formed between Hillary supporters and Obama supporters if it happened though.
Hopefully the sniper fire will stay at a minimum if she does get and take the post! (Sorry, couldn’t resist)

It will be interesting to see how this play out. These two, for sure, do not get along. I just wonder if Hillary will be more influential as a senator from New York, along with heading up a powerful senate committee, rather than being Secretary of State under Obama.
And so far, I have not heard of any Republican or conservative nominations by “bi-partisan” Barack Hussein Obama.
Hey, I’m all for Hillary as Secretary of State as long as Bill’s activities don’t interfere. And is it me or are you softening towards the left…just a little itty bitty bit, you know.
it seems like, if Hillary becomes the Sec. State, then there will be some serious personality and agenda conflict between her and Obama
