NEW YORK – A panel of Democratic Party legal heavyweights speculated Jamie Gorelick, former deputy attorney general in the Clinton administration, could be appointed attorney general if Barack Obama were elected president.

In a panel chaired by Elena Kagan, dean and professor of law at Harvard Law School, Gorelick charged on the opening plenary panel of the American Constitution's Society two-day meeting in Washington that the Bush administration had politicized the operation of the Justice Department.

Gorelick said that if she were appointed attorney general in an Obama administration, her first job would be to "fix" the Department of Justice.

"The Justice Department only functions well if the career lawyers have a voice and are actively consulted," Gorelick told the 700 attendees. "In the old order, if the White House wanted to know if something was lawful, it would call the Justice Department, and there would be a lot of discussion within the Justice Department at the attorney general's office. The legal opinion would be the product of the Justice Department's work."

Later, Gorelick acknowledged the attorney general had to be close ideologically to the president in order to represent the administration's legal positions both to the public and through the office of solicitor general.

Gorelick was appointed by then-Senate Democratic Party minority leader Tom Daschle to serve on the National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States, commonly known as the 9/11 commission.

I very much doubt that any hard-core Clintonistas will populate the upper reaches of an Obama administration.

If Eric Holder or Deval Patrick are NOT Obama's AG, I'll set my hair on fire (and I feel perfectly safe).

Even if McCain were to begin eating live babies, I would not want that POS black racist to make it anywhere near the presidency.

We are in so much trouble!

I knew I had seen this somewhere. Gorelick was predicted as a prominent member of any next Rat administration over a year ago,

More evidence that there are people behind the scenes pulling the strings because, if true, this makes no sense.
