Here it comes...

I've held off writing anything about the new developments in the life of the President-Elect until now. I thought that I should write considering the new incoming Secretary of State. I found it very interesting that many thought of putting an Obama-Clinton ticket together. It seemed like a doomed idea to put two people who thoroughly trashed each other in the primaries together on the same bill. One of the things that Obama specifically attacked was the foreign policy experience of his former opponent. So now that is going to be her business in the new American government. I know that I am not fond of Obama, something everyone is aware of, but I am not even having to try to find this a poor choice. Anyone else have thoughts on this matter and/or any other of Obama's appointments?

  1. Actually the Clinton appointment makes sense, though I too was originally skeptical. She’s tremendously popular overseas, and bringing her into the folds prevents her from becoming a potential rival, his chief in party critic in the Senate. I also ensures that she will be out of the country for much of the next four years, which I’m sure you will appreciate.
