I was watching the repeat of CNN's interview of Hillary Clinton. Wolf was asking her the usual questions about what she thought about the debate, then, towards the end, Wolf asked her if she'd be interested in being in Obama's cabinet.
Her answer? No, because she wants to stay in the senate, and that it will be important for President Obama to have as many democratic senators as possible.
She then made one more casual reference to President Obama before ending the interview.
My reaction - WOW.
Click here for the video of Hillary Clinton's interview.
The amazing part of Hillary's reference to Obama as President Obama was that she did it so matter-of-factly, and she said it so naturally. The words "President Obama" just seemed to roll off her tongue. And when she said those words, they sounded so new, so refreshing, so obvious, so non-controversial, so right, and so very real.
HRC said "President Obama" so naturally that even Wolf was lulled into accepting it without saying something silly like, "but, let's remember, the race isn't over, and Senator Obama isn't president yet."
President Obama . . . I can get really, really used to that.
