  "Any right thinking person will conclude that Andrea Mitchel will not throw away her future sources with Obama's team by falsely accusing them of leaking such a sensitive material about Hillary."

  I see. And if I don't agree with you "right-thinking people", I'm guilty of "hatred".

  Oh, yes. I see it all so clearly now that you've explained it to me.

  She burns nothing with the Obama people if she doesn't bloody name them. There must be a hundred people in the president-elect's camp who knew about the offer. Every one of them can suspect that it was Hillary's people leaking through a trained monkey of a reporter, but they can't know it.

  Tell me you don't think our very own Joan Walsh would happily perform this service for the Clintons.

  I'm not saying this is horrific evil on the part of the Clintons. It's just a preview of the drama that's waiting for Obama for making the totally foolish choice to invite Hillary to take the spotlight at every opportunity, and run a separate presidency from the State Department. It will be a gigantic headache for him, if nothing else.

  Like I said, it's just a big disappointment. Hillary is also a singularly poor choice to fix Iraq, since she and her husband kept brutal sanctions in place against that poor, helpless country for 8 years after they'd destroyed all their WMD. On the same false grounds that Bush invaded on.

  BTW, do you remember that Hillary supported that war completely, and cheerled Bush's invasion?

  Think she'll have the chance to obliterate Iran? Would she be the best person possible to talk to Iran after threatening them with extermination?
