Joan, your enthusiasm for Hillary increasingly makes me wonder whether you would consider actually working for her in the event she wins the Democratic nomination and general election. Those two events are not foregone conclusions, but neither are they beyond the realm of possibility.
I doubt I am the only Salon reader who is starting to think you're honing your talking head pundit chops - in part, at least - as a resume-buffer for a triumphant Hillary. Nor do I think it is out of line to ask the question, even at this early juncture, Would you consider a role in a Clinton Administration. Feel free to skip the "I have not been contacted by..." deflection, as that's not really what I'm asking.
Since Salon is such a prominent online publication, and your editorial influence here is inarguably substantial, I think it's a reasonable question to ask: Is it possible you would accept a role, should the opportunity arise, as Hillary's Press Secretary?
Inquiring Minds Want To Know! As editor here, you're fully capable of understanding why it's a relevant question.
