The president sets the agenda. Hillary will not have a free hand in this adminstration. I frankly cannot support anyone/organization that uses racebaiting, mysogyny, sexism as tools/weapons. I, too think Hillary can do more good as a policy wonk/visionary in the senate. She will be constrained as sec of state. I cannot begin to guess what will happen. I continue to feel like I'm in the twilight zone. Bingo, felizarte! The president sets the agenda. Hillary will not have a free hand in this adminstration.

Secretary of State being next in line if something happens to President and Vice-President. I was sure that was the order. I was corrected that Pelosi would be next (yuck). I still believe Hillary will most likely be offered the position. I truly believe with all my heart it's not really an offer but a negotiation she made with BO's camp in return for she and Bill campaigning for him. I know the Clinton's and they don't do anything without a political reward (I love them don't get me wrong). And I'm glad she didn't campaign for him for no reason since I believe she really didn't want to back him. It gives me a little more peace also. I was truly scared of BO and his possible position to Israel. With Hillary overseeing it I know Israel will have an ally. Plus she can keep her eye on him! I apologize for my comment above re.

I had believed that he was an excellent gov. and would work to move this country to universal healthcare since he is a medical doctor. I think he simply didn't understand national politics and he got caught up in the ambitions of those who believed that Obama is incompetent and that they could promote themselves in an Obama administration just as Rumsfield and Cheney did in the Bush administration. I think that none of them realize that what this country desperately needs is competency in a president and they have sold our country out to a puppet-president. I hope Hillary stays in the Senate but I believe that she is a true patriot and will do whatever she can do to save our country. We just need lots more people like Hillary and fewer like Obama hangers-on. As usual, this is an innovative way of looking at the Dean situation. Thank you for ANOTHER excellent and thought-provoking cartoon. Howard Dean has been such a disappointment.

Hear Richardson and Kerry also named for the same position. Why on earth would she take the position? She has goals of her own that can be accomplished only by remaining a Senator. Congress passes the laws. They are the check on the Executive Branch. The Congress will have to remain in a position to enact legislation for the economic welfare of our country. Thats her expertise. Why would she join his administration and be hamstrung by his decisions. This leak is only to weaken her. This is a bunch of bull. Hear Richardson and Kerry also named for the same position.

It would be a bad move on her part -- first of all, I think this is a b.s. story anyway -- he does not want to offer her anything -- unless it is so he can, as you so correctly put it, have her at his beck and call, blame her for his failures, and fire her -- then she's out of the Senate and gone. Just say no deal. Agreed.

Obama's presidency begins with his integrity and honesty already compromised as does the Democratic-controlled Congress, IMO this is a no-win situation. The election was a fraud. The majority of people know that the MSM is in the tank for Obama. Bots have high expectations of receiving large checks from The One which will never happen, and our nation is in grave danger and could well morph into something none of us will recognize or much want. Throwing out this little crumb of gossip about Hillary - personally I'm not interested. But I am interested in seeing The One's birth certificate. Where is that pesky thing anyway?

And I would guess she would not accept. There's no way she could succeed in any cabinet position where The One is president. I think that would be the end of her career, much like it was the end of Colin Powell's career. I mean does anyone here actually think Powell's integrity survived his stint as SOS under Dubya?
