I don’t know how seriously to take this rumour, but I still have some time before “Supernatural” comes on, so what the hell? I surprisingly have no problem with this. I mean, I’m also of the “elections have consequences” mentality and feel the President, even if I didn’t vote for him, gets to fill his own cabinet. But all things being equal, I think she’d make a great Secretary of State.
Bill Richardson’s still my first choice, or if the President-Elect was a man of his word when he says silly things like “change” or “bi-partisan,” maybe even a Chuck Hagel or a Richard Lugar. If I can’t get Richardson, I’ll definitely take a Secretary Clinton over a Secretary Kerry (as in John).
Plus, speaking as a New Yorker, it would free up a senate seat. I’m not naïve to think the Governor (who’s a D) would give it to an R, but there isn’t really a heir-apparent to step up so I’d be curious to see who’d move up.
Parting Thought: Am I the only one who’s noticed that Barack Obama, who ran on change and turning the page and making a break from the Clinton’s, seems to be staffing the White House will all former Clinton people? Change I can believe in indeed!
