Chris Matthews said she won the Senate seat because her husband was disloyal to her. Now, he says she is being offered the SoS position to get her out of the Senate where she could cause mischief for Obama. Essentially, this guy needs to marginalize Hillary, no matter what.
Michele Bernard sounds like a high school girl deciding whether or not another girl should eat lunch at their table. She is very immature, holding on to primary rivalry, yet was very calm and agreeable that Obama met with McCain and may offer him something....
The person covering for Rachel Maddow last night played some soap opera music for her intro to this topic. The only people making this a soap opera is the media. The only people leaking info is the Obama team of youngsters who lack political maturity, apparently.
Did anyone doubt that it would not take an especially long vetting procedure to vet President Clinton's associations? He has not been sitting home reading; he has been raising money for AIDS, malaria, and other international good causes since the people abroad appreciate him and his wife far more than the people at home, whom he served with peace and prosperity.
Her seat in the Senate has been marginalized. Good ole boys who never spoke to health care have all surfaced suddenly as experts on the subject, waving their white papers on their plan; Kennedy who had 40 years to do it, Bachus (who is he anyway?), and Daeschle, the new expert who has written a book on it....strangely enough, they are all the Clinton plan. She has been taken out of that issue altogether. She may very well not get the SoS position with all the circus and hoopla and disrespect she has been treated with---again. All the speculation, such as from Friedman that she will not be speaking for the President, has just about nullified any impact or import she may have with her foreign missions.
I am thinking this was all a ruse to get her power she garnered in the primary marginalized and minimized. If she does get the position, I fear she will be kept "out of the loop" to such an extent that she cannot do her job.
I am growing very disappointed. I believe Obama could put a stop to this press trash talk if he wanted to.
