Obama will Nominate Clinton to Secretary of State near Thanksgiving

By Tim Einenkel

NBC's Andrea Mitchell has confirmed that Senator Hillary Clinton will be nominated for Secretary of State by Thanksgiving: Politico has more:

President-elect Barack Obama is "on track" to name Sen. Hillary Rodham
Clinton (D-N.Y.) as his secretary of state shortly after Thanksgiving,
two senior Obama aides said.

Financial disclosure issues have been worked out, aides said.

The officials said they expect her to accept. Clinton aides had no comment.

The choice unites the two rivals in the most protracted presidential
primary in American history, giving Obama the "Team of Rivals" Cabinet
he had promised.

Former President Bill Clinton authorized unprecedented disclosures
about his finances to Obama's vetting team, and transition lawyers are
satisfied, officials said.

Barack's Choice

I am absolutely elated that our next president-elect will nominate Senator Clinton. What a wonderful choice! She will be a great Secretary of State, and a smart one, too!

Damn that "Team Clinton"!

Hillary is obviously using Republican tactics like lying and blackmail to get appointed SOS. She is pure evil and will start WW3. Even a child can see her ploy.

Damn you, you fascist!

Your kind is through. You better find Jesus now and pray he forgives your sinful way. Bad mouth my BIATCH again and I'll kick your lillywhite ass, fascist. Hillary sits on my face.

Get back on that deep fryer, Brian

Those nuggets won't cook themselves, and you've got customers waiting.

1/20/2009: the end of an error.

Hillary is the top choice for this position.

She has so much experience in the Middle East she's got a camel toe. I'm an expert on Hillary's positions.

Her favorite for you is...

..."wake me up when you're done so I can change the sheets."

There are treatments available for PE. Look into them. Maybe you'll get more dates with women that way.

McCain/Palin '08: the also-rans.

Hope she isn't afraid to fly into Kosovo. Maybe she should

bring a helmet and just run past the child bearing the bouquet this time! LOL

Actually, I think she'll make a pretty good secretary of state. Maybe not as good as Richardson in some areas, but the Clinton name will open doors and provide some instant good will where we haven't seen any in a while. Will she agree to sit down and talk to the Iranians now, as Obama and 5 former secretaries of state have been urging, or will she counsel that we continue to threaten to "obliterate" them, as she stated during the primaries?

Truth is whatever you can get other people to believe - Tom Smothers

She will obliterate them!

The woman is pure evil!
