1. I think she would be a good choice

Plus a Democratic Governor would appoint the next Senator.

And she would do a good job.

2. Does anyone doubt she would be a gazillion times better than Condysleeza?

??

[aquart]

11. I would never make such a comparison.

How would she compare to Madeleine Albright?

[123infinity]

14. Quite favorably, I'd say.

:D

[ultraist]

4. I agree

Hillary would do an excellent job as SOS. Plus, it's kind of a two-for-one with Bill Clinton, who is so well known and respected around the globe.

Welcome to DU! :hi:

3. Thank God we'll have someone untainted by support for the Iraq War to represent us.

Oh.

[ultraist]

6. Who is qualified that didn't support the Iraq war?

Kerry is also under consideration but he was for the Iraq war too, as were the large majority of Dems.

[Eric J in MN]

7. John Kerry, Bill Richardson, and Tom Daschle, supported it, too.

There doesn't seem to be an opponent of the Iraq War even under consideration for Secretary of State.

[Eric J in MN]

5. This could just be a way to seek the good-will of Hillary Clinton supporters...

...saying: We think so much of Hillary Clinton that we're considering her for the prestigious job of Secretary of State.

[Bolo Boffin]

8. I was hoping for Supreme Court

If she wants it, I say go for it.

[ultraist]

9. Hillary said she's not interested in the SCOTUS

I don't have a link handy, but I'm pretty certain I recall her saying during a recent interview that she is not interested in the Supreme Court.

[Bolo Boffin]

12. I had not heard that.

Oh, well. Maybe in ten years or so. :)

[pedo]

10. Wes Clark for Secretary of Defense would be nice

[Revlon10]

16. Wes Clark, yes I like him.

[Buzz Clik]

19. Dennis Kucinich for Secretary of Galaxial Protocol

[Truth Teller]

13. I'm a Hillary fan but I prefer her in the Senate

Perhaps as majority leader someday.

There are other great choices as well.

[trickyguy]

15. Tired of hearing her voice. Isn't there anyone else?

[Maineman]

17. During the primary her views sounds totally inconsistent with Obama's

How could they function?

[Buzz Clik]

18. The list of candidates increases yet again.

The only name that matters is the one Obama mentions when he says, "I am nominating, for Secretary of State, ...."

Until then, it's all bullshit.
