This piece by Liz Sidoti, filed via the AP, talks about the possibility of Hillary being on the short list for SecState.
Surprising? Hardly. Actually, not a really bad choice, when considered against the specter of utter buffoonery that the other three names Sidoti mentions - Kerry, Hagel, and Richardson - evoke, probably even to many Dems. It also seems to work on a couple of other levels. If she’d take the job, Hill could use the position to broaden and strengthen her own resume, and be very visibly seen doing so. For Barack, the old saying ‘keep your friends close, your enemies closer’ could be a factor. The inclusion of a Clinton back into the NSC process - it would certainly send a message.
The prospect of the Clintons running Foggy Bottom. With Hill, not Bill, calling the shots. Sort of.
