    Joan on Hillary

    I wanted Hillary and Obama so my feelings are not much different from Joan's. The problem is that all the pundits want to predict the future--place their bets and show how bright and right they were after the transition is complete. I am just sitting back and enjoying the show. No one is more prepared to be Secretary of State than Senator Clinton. If she does not have the answer to some diplomatic problem, she would know exactly who might have that answer. She has contacts throughout the world that are astounding. She would have a more than able and competent staff to help her. But it is quite a show with the Chicago gang, the Clinton gang, the Democratic Hill gang, the media gang, etc. This is real democracy in action.
