I think Hillary will make an excellent choice for Secratary of State. Looking at the menu of choices: Hillary Clinton, John Kerry, and Bill Richardson (both of whom practice snore politics), I'll take Clinton all day long. I also heard Tom Dashcle might be up for consideration as well, which wouldn't be a bad choice either. But Clinton is very comfortable and competent on the international stage, in my opinion.

Besides, whose a better politician than Hillary Clinton? Well, we could name a few but you get the point. Again, I think people are confusing the most likable candidate with the most capable candidate. I think it's time we have a cabinet that isn't clones of the Commander-In-Chief, but are capable of executing policy and ideas and, yes, changing the current tone of our politics.

I know the right are salivating at the prospect of Obama choosing Clinton for Secratary of State. Standing ready to blast him for choosing politics as usual over his mantra of "change". But how about we wait until kickoff, or half-time even to judge how this will all play itself out.
