Hillary Clinton On Obama’s Short List For Secretary Of State
Yes, the woman who lied about coming under sniper fire during the now-infamous “Tuzla Dash,” could possibly be Obama’s pick for Sec. of State.
Several Obama transition advisers are strongly advocating Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.) for secretary of State, a move that would create the ultimate “Team of Rivals” cabinet, according to officials involved in the discussions.
President-elect Obama has narrowed the possibilities for secretary of State and Clinton is among those being strongly considered, the officials said. Some even call her the favorite.
It is not known what Obama himself thinks of the idea. But the fact that it is being entertained within his camp shows how much things have changed in the months since he defeated her for the Democratic nomination in a protracted primary marathon.
It’s amazing that Obama could go from ripping Hillary’s foreign policy qualifications apart during the primary campaigns to appointing her to head up his foreign policy in the span of just a few months.
Speaks volumes about his judgment, if you ask me.
