Hillary Clinton is hiring some of her most aggressive aides to watch her back when she becomes Secretary of State, sparking concerns among allies of President-Elect Barack Obama that the primary election season's partisan aggression will carry into government.
The former first lady has indicated that she wants to rebuild "Hillaryland", her coterie of controlling, defensive and at times paranoid circle of admirers and supporters at the heart of US diplomacy.
Three members of Mrs Clinton's inner circle have already been told they will get top State Department jobs ...
Maggie Williams, Mrs Clinton's longtime confidante, who was called in to overhaul her dysfunctional presidential campaign, compared by some to a circular firing squad...
Other advisers will include Cheryl Mills, the no-nonsense Clinton impeachment lawyer...
Philippe Reines, her Senate press secretary ... who has been described by journalists as "power hungry" and "highly controlling", had one reporter suspended after he made a disparaging remark about Miss Clinton during the campaign.
Huma Abedin, Mrs Clinton's ferociously loyal traveling aide during the campaign...
Mr Obama, who gave Mrs Clinton carte blanche to pick her own staff...

Maggie Williams, oo onspirator in the Vine Foster matter.
It may be a painful 4 years or more, but it will certainly crank up popcorn sales.
The far left has already decided to take care of Hillary. There is a front page article in the Seattle Times about how Hillary, Schumer and Arlen Spector took campaign donations in exchange for an earmark which ensured the military continue to buy an inferior chemical warfare protectorant.
catfight
Sure glad I'm no longer associated with the State Department. It was bad enough when Maddie Halfbright and Susan Rice were involved.
I don’t think the Obama team is worried at all.
Woof.
Hillary may have BHO’s birth certificate and his Indonesian passport ?
It’s fun, isn’t it, to see that the only incisive reporting on the new administration is coming only from foreign papers.
Now that only Dems are in power, the MSM has nothing bad or even analytical to say about politics. I’ve been reading such stories only in European or Australian papers.
The American media is a dead man walking.
The list of closures, firings, layoffs ...is massive.
Barry’s naiveté is astounding. He’s worried about people’s MySpace pages and getting more poets in the WH, while the Clintons are already mounting a coup from the State Department
The stock market may be crashing, but it's definitely a time to buy Orville Redenbacher stocks.
We could take bets on how long Marse Hillary lasts as SoS. We could also take bets on who ends up in Ft. Marcy Park next. We can't deny that Obambi's good; he's got a well-funded slick machine with the full support of the MSM. He even managed to take the nomination away from Her Gaianess. Now let's see how he puts up with her.
It's definitely popcorn time.:)
The socialist libs are so FUBAR, it is a tragedy of unseen proportion. They are going to shaft this country beyond belief....and each other in the process. Let us PRAY this will set the stage nicely for 2012, and maybe a few PUBLIC GROUND SWELLS in the process —
Give them enough rope — and let THEM finish the job.
THE RETURN OF THE KNEECAPPERS
The far left is working hard to make sure that Hillary never gets approval as Sect’y of State, or if she does get approval, that she will have no credibility.
The Seattle Times ran a front page article about how Hillary, along with Schumer and Arlen Specter pushed through 7.6 million in earmarks to force the military to continue to buy an inferior decontamination product, despite the fact that a newer more effective product is now being offered. The earmarks came in exchange for campaign donations, of course.
Oh, Barry Soetoro - this is going to be fun to watch. ROFL.
So there will be all this infighting while
the world explodes. They will give all their attention and focus to their enemies within the US while the international situation goes downhill.
Fiddling -— Rome burning, etc.

Let the games begin!!
There is no doubt in my mind that Hillary has decided that she will allow Obama preside within the borders of the USA and she will be the head of state, not a cabinet minister, outside the borders.
This whole frikin' fiasco is going to be one for the history books with an actual dual presidency (domestic & foreign) and one of the co-presidents being of dual citizenship..............
Hillary is going to be after Obama’s job, from day one.
Yes.
Wasn’t there something during the primary campaign about State Dept. Passport records being compromised?
LOL!

Dual presidency? We had that in the clinton years. Don’t write off Michelle or Bill.
This will be a Quadrumvirate.
Forget Biden. I hear they have a cage for him at the Washington Zoo.
Hasn’t Maggie Williams been in Europe for a while, in part, so she would not be potentially prosecuted for prior Clinton shennanigans (obstructed justice maybe?)?
Hitlery really likes those ‘Huma’ jobs.
A sensible plan for her.
Heck, I won’t be surprised if she brings her own coffee to work.
is sec of state in line for the presidency? makes me wonder........
I would think Soros has a better chance of having that information.
four have to go, then...sos
Not guilty!
that would be a lot easier for them to manage....it’s doable.
Piece a cake...
Number four.
Right after the Veep, Speaker, and President pro tempore of the senate.
Ever see a hilarious old Brit movie with Alec Guinness playing 13 or so different roles called “Kind Hearts and Coronets”?
Team Obama is astonished that, after asking for the ability to pick her own staff, Hillary actually picked her own staff? And that it’s the same staff she already had? What, they thought she was going to hold auditions? These people really are clueless.
Who is going to watch her husband Bill? Hillary did not even know her husband had sex with that woman, when she was the smartest woman on earth. Did she know what really happened to Vince Foster or whether Paula Jones and Anita Broderick were telling the truth? Something is very weird about Hillary being appointed Sec. of State. Where are her qualifications?
ok doable...Obama can’t find his birth certificate...biden dies from an overworked brain spell....otherwise known as a bidenism.......nancy phony boobs fly up and hit her in the face causing it to crack and poof.....she is gone.....Byrd flies off to his dirt nap.......and voila! Hillary comes to the aid of her country.........oh, yeah...hillary could manage all that.
Hillary has to be one of the most overrated politicians. Her lying indicates stupidity, arrogance, and a sociopathic personality. She has given rambling nonanswers to questions. And what has she ever accomplished? Her experience is minimal. Her facial expressions and cackling indicated mental instability. Then there are her scandals - large numbers of them with MSM covering up for her or dismissing them.
Wasn't Maggie the one who found the Clinton's Rose Law Firm billing records sitting on a desk in an unused office after a 3 year search for them??
I think Maggie is the "Coverup Queen".
The coup by leftover Clinton cronies from the State Department and the CIA against George W. Bush was very successful.
They are still there for the most part.....no reason they can't undermine DUH 1 in pretty short order.
Read Ken Timmerman's "Shadow Warriors" for a great documentary of the Clintonistas sabotaging the Bush administration after 911.
