Millions to the Clintons and the DNC. Read "The American Spectator", April 1997, "Let's be Friends: A mob-Controlled Union Delivers the Goods for Bill", by Byron York. This will open your eyes. Kerry will never ask questions about it. Why? He has some skeletons in his own closet - Varelli, Avirgan, Christic institute.

H. Clinton is in no way, shape or form qualified for this position. I think Senator Kerry is being political gracious here. This appointment was nothing more than a poltical appointment to shut up the opposition and squash a disruptive threat. I hope she serves for four years only- one because she is no diplomat and two, because after that we won't have to hear about this diva who rides her husband's coat tails.In the meantime let hope she is nothing more than a showpiece. Her abrasive manner could do a lot of harm to foreign relations. Unfortunately, the best person didn't get this position. H. Clinton is in no way, shape or form qualified for this position.

What Obama has is INTELLIGENCE. That's much needed and will be very much appreciated after 8 years of DUH! Bill Clinton was the last democratic president, therefore, it would be his staff that has experience and should be utilized.

I don't see why it would be hung up at all. She is well liked by her colleagues and respected for her opinion. What I DO find interesting, is the other headline that came up today about how "Obama's rhetoric meets reality." It basically quotes Obama saying that a lot of his campaign promises aren't going to happen in his term (4 or 8). I wonder if this will pave the way for his downfall, and cause some people to wish they had voted for Hillary. The article states that Obama is reconsidering some of his promises and will prioritize them based on what he thinks he can deliver, which is a good thing. SO if anyone should be wary, I would be cautious Obama, you'll want to keep an eye on Hillary. She could use your backing down from your campaign promises (e.g., doubling of the troops in Afghanistan, and his backpedaling of running up the deficit by his 800 Billion Bailout Package) to her advantage and rerun in 2012.
