After reading Al's analysis, i don't think i want Hillary as Secretary of State. The conflict of interest is just too much to bear.

I don't like the Clinton's drama. The country want a break from this mess

It is non-denial-denial. Classic washington speak. She is going to be a sectretary under Obama's administration. Perhaps, a secretary of health and human services.

I kind of understand Greg's logic. Obama is a smart politician, he is no dummy, he needs all the help he can get during the transition. Once the transition is over, i still expect some of the Clintonites to continue to work for him until 2010. Obama would have mastered the entire system by that time.

Folks, i see him bringing his own men on board after 2010. Most of the Clintonites, Rahm Emmanuel especially, will like to return to their normal business. Watch out for Susan Rice and Austin Goldsbee in 2010.

Gbenga Commented on Senate Staffers Begin Mulling Health Care Reform As Part Of Stimulus Package by Greg Sargent

Bill Clinton has too much favor to pay back. All his shady dealings are likely to comeback to hunt.

I just don't trust the Clintons.

I'd rather want Hillary championing the healthcare bill rather than Secretary of State. The drama of Clinton's family is just too much for me to bear.

The Clinton’s team leak like a broken pike. I don't think she is that discipline, especially when it comes to her staffs that have this sense of entitlement.

I'd rather want to see John Kerry or Richardson. Please leave Hillary in the Senate. I don't want another Clinton-Palin drama for the next 4 years.

Andrea Mitchell reported, on World , that her source indicates Hillary being vetted for the Secretary of state position. Hillary was seen flying to Chicago today.

The question is for what?

What is it that i am hearing about Hillary Clinton for the Secretary of State. I don't think i like this idea at all.

Is this true? I'd rather preffer John Kerry for the Secretary of State or Bill Richardson. I just don't trust people in Hillary land. They leak too much.

Did anyone notice something about the press conference? I am talking about the reporters Obama called on.

He called on...AP, NBC, ABC, CBS, Chicago news papers,CNN and New York Times.

What about Fox News Reporters? Fox Noise was made irrelevant

I totally disagree with you. He is the representative of hispanic community. He is going to bring the perspective of a mayor of big city to the table

I think you're misjudging her. I still believe her experience, as a Michigan governor, will be valuable. She is the only Governor that has seen the economic devastation of the Mo-Town.

She would bring a perspective of a governor, of economic deprived state, to the table. We need combination of academicians, Regulators, Wall Street Titans and Business-men-women on the table.

This is a brilliant move. If Obama can revive the state of Michigan, then, KY, MO will turn blue in the next election.

Gbenga Commented on Reid: No Decisions Have Been Made On Lieberman's Fate by Greg Sargent

I just sent an email to Reid on Lieberman. He needs to kick his ass out , now. I can't, in good conscience, pretend that Lieberman is a good man. He is, in fact, a traitor and a back starber.

He campaign vigorously for McCain, with the hope that Obama will loose the election. It is pay back time.Democrats should not reward bad behaviour. Lieberman must go.

Brilliant!! I like this team. What about my favorite professor, Alex Goldsbee? I hope Obama counsult with him. The guy is a brilliant communicator.

Your argument seems plausible...Liberman must go. He needs to be kicked out of congress

You are absolutely right. My friends and Families that are living abroad, basically, confirmed your assertion.

I'll be extremely mad at Reid et al if they keep Liberman as Chairman of homeland security. This is the same guy that associated Obama with a terrorist.

The guy is a phony asshole...he needs to be thrown out of congress.

Gbenga Commented on Rahm Emanuel Accepts Gig As Obama's Chief Of Staff, Aide Says by Greg Sargent

2008-11-06T19:23:26Z

If it works for Obama, to keep the General, that is fine by me. My hunch tells me Obama is going to appoint someone with Pragmatic view to the state department.

Richardson, Sebellius, Authur Davis, Deval Patrick, Clara McCaskill and Napolitano should be consider for Energy, Commerce, Justice Department, Homeland Security, and Supreme Court judge.

These guys have been with Obama since the Primary. They are competent individual. I specifically like Clara McCaskill for Secretary of Agriculture. She is a tough cookie that knows how to get things done.
