Does anyone really think Shillary is something other than a cold, calculating, meglomaniacal bitch? Clearly she thinks this is going to help her win the presidency in some long term way. It’s been her life’s work ever since that 1993 healthcare debacle.

This is an interesting situation, I must admit. First of all, Hillary’s 60 years old. If Obama wins a second term, she’ll be 68. That will probably cause her problems, since that is getting in the “too old” realm. Of course, the media will probably portray her age as “stateswomanlike” rather than being too old as in McCain’s case. I would think that being Secretary of State would be a bad move overall, because if anything bad happens in this administration, it may very well stick to her.

Color me confused.

Is this BO’s attempt to obtain some needed foreign policy credibility for his already sinking administrtion?

Or is it a rope-a-dope to take Mrs. Clinton out of the Senate and make her into a Potemkin Secretary of State. We know that if Mrs. Clinton takes the job, she will sit in the chair, but how much power will she wield?

I think this is a fake-out by BO. Just like Mrs. Clinton nominated Zoe Baird nnd the other, than torpedoed the nomination to get Janet Reno in office. this could a move to placate Mrs. Clinton’s voters without letting her anywhere near a sest of power. B.J. Cinton poses massive ethical problems to any would be Secretary of State.

Hmmm!

One thing you can say about Hillary is that no matter how screwy her domestic policies are (Hillarycare, etc.), when it comes to foreign affairs, she does seem to act in America’s best interests. She voted to authorize use of military force in Afghanistan and Iraq, and seems to understand the threat of Islamofascism, and I think understands the threat of Russian ambitions.

So where have you been the last 2 weeks?
