    Obama just pulled Samantha Power back into his team

    I hoped he would, and suspected he would when the time was right. Today, the time is right.

    Power famously called Hillary Clinton a "monster" and was swiftly but appropriately booted (forced to resign) from the Obama campaign.

    Now she'll be an important part of the department Hillary Clinton will be leading.

    Glad to have Power back! She's exactly the kind of person Obama needs on his team -- principled and deeply knowledgeable.
