Andrea Mitchell on MSNBC is reporting that two Obama advisers have told NBC News that Hillary Clinton is under consideration to be secretary of state...
Other Democrats known to want the State Department post are Sen. John Kerry and Gov. Bill Richardson. A possible compromise choice would be former Sen. Tom Daschle.
No way! I don't believe it.
Number one, she fought President Elect Barack Obama's vision of diplomacy and his plans of talking to our enemies during the campaign.
Number two, she is a Senator. The Senate, Harry Reid and President Elect Obama will need every Senator they can get their hands on if they want to get any really tough bills passed - especially health care. Aren't they currently working hard to win in Alaska, Minnesota and Georgia.
The best man for the job would be Sen Tom Daschle because he wouldn't take up any current Democrat's position like Hillary, Kerry or Richardson would. However, the best man, because of his experience, would be, Governor Bill Richardson.
I pray this offer wasn't part of the deal for her and Bill's cooperation during Obama's campaign against Senator John McCain. If it was, it sure proves what I've said about Hillary and Bill all along. They are out for number one, not the Party or the American people.
