The Hillary Secretary of State issue is sure getting interesting to

Looks like the Clintons outwitted Obama, and now he has *no* choice but
to appoint her or risk a major backlash in his own party and
supporters.

Hope this isn't an indication of a President Obama's negotiating skills
in other areas.

Your conclusions are based upon?


The Clintons have gone out of their way to make the appointment public
and appear to be all but certain..... without actually waiting for
Obama's team to formally make a decision or announcment.
Big Bill has already agreed to cooperate fully in the vetting process,
and Hillary's staff has routinely leaked that the process is well
underway.

If he choses Richardson or someone else instead, the Hillary followers
are going to scream bloody murder. Dissed twice.

They have him boxed in pretty nicely.

This is really funny. When you are vetted by the FBI for a high level job,
all manner of people are contacted about you. There are dozens of people
who have been contacted about Hillary for this potential job. But Hillary
or Bill leaked it. Right.

Do you seriously believe the vetting process for Secretary of State is the
same as an FBI background check for a security clearance? Come on Harry,
you know better than that.

Obama's cabinet selections and considerations should be highly kept secrets
until ready to be announced, especially for jobs involving national
security. Obama should know that. The Clintons should know it even
better.

It's a power play, and what makes it sickening is that it puts individuals
(Hillary) before the best interests of the country.
