Hillary Accepts Sec. State Job
Well why wouldn’t she? Did anyone honestly expect her to turn it down?
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – New York Sen. Hillary Clinton has accepted an offer from President-elect Barack Obama to become U.S. secretary of state, joining her former Democratic rival to help guide U.S. foreign policy, the New York Times said on Friday.
The newspaper quoted two Clinton associates who said she came to her decision after additional discussions with Obama about the nature of her role as the top U.S. diplomat and his foreign policy plans.
“She’s ready,” one of the sources told the newspaper, which posted the report on its website.
From my perspective, things could have been worse. Obama could have picked John Kerry or someone like that to be Sec. State.
