There are only 100 people to buy off in the Senate. She’s got a good 3 terms left in her, and that’s time to consolidate a real power base. At this point, she’ll never be a viable presidential candidate ever again. 4 years as Senator, and she’s out.
And then what does she do. Write memoirs?
If I were here counselor, I wouldn’t advise her to leave the Senate for anything short of Scotus.

It WILL get her out of the Senate, will it not? They aren’t applauding for her sake.
To: mathwhizz
Gets her out of New York and the Senate. At least, that’s something to applaud.

She might (might, I say) be better than Half-bright.

The spineless cowards in the Republican party have yet to locate their long lost balls No, the Repubs located them, they just cut them off to hang them on the Capitol Christmas, er, I mean Holiday tree, as a sign of good will and a promise to be bipartisan.

heh heh heh. Noooo, I think it is very, very smart for the GOP to applaud the appointment of Hitlery.
Hussein is going to rue the day he allowed that trial balloon to leak. :)

She is objectionable but not as objectionable as most of the possibilities would be. This way she is out of the Senate and we probably will not have to wororyabouther running for prez again. I think it is a good move for the GOP. How far we have fallen that I say this! Maybe Rudy can run for the Senate.

You have plenty of company.
Unless the Republican Party moves, across the board, HARD to the right, they may continue to exist, but they will do so without their traditional base.

Why would that take her out of a future presidential run? Wouldn’t she then have a high-profile executive position on her resume?

She might (might, I say) be better than Half-bright. Only in the fact that she hasn't been seeped in that internationalism Albright was. Other than that, they seem pretty similar in temperament.

Call me crazy, but I actually think that Hillary loves this country and would not necessarily sell us all out.
Who knew that Hillary was the lesser of two evils in this election?

I wonder how many who don’t want Hillary as Sec. of St. but have kids and just look the other way. and grandkids in public school being converted drip by drip by liberal teachers and liberal text books

“Doesnt Hussein have the power to fire her if he feels like it?”
I think that could happen. The dislike between the obamas and clintons was obvious. It would be the equivalent of twisting the knife...and she would have no senate seat to run back to.

"whats embarrassing is that Hillary may be better than republican picks such as James Baker, Colin Powell and Condi Rice"That's exactly what I am saying; those "Republicans" are what the Party consists of today, and they are nowhere NEAR a Conservative idea.

Hillary is no doubt as good as anyone else he would select, but honestly how much is that saying?
