The Hillary Secretary of State issue is sure getting interesting to watch
unfold.

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.

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.

Maybe not. Obama could counter with the position that he withdraws her
from consideration due to the Clinton's propensity to be manipulative
and not be trusted by anyone , even the president of these United States
Of America. I sure hope he shows the country that He's smart enough to
deal with them. We don't want the tail to be wagging the dog.

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.

The FBI vetting process for high level appointees involves interviews
with people who know the prospective appointee. There's no requirement
the interviewee keep his or her mouth shut in the FBI interview.

One of my old buddies was "vetted" by the FBI in the 1980s for the
number 2 job at the USPS. I was interviewed about him. I wasn't asked to
not mention the interviews. Perhaps the process is a bit different now,
but neither the government nor the FBI can compel secrecy on a vetting
matter.

They don't tell you what JOB the person is being vetted for. Only
that they are investigating.

Gee...you think some of those being asked questions about Clinton are
smart enough to know she is being considered for Secretary of State?

Nah.
