The New York Times reports that Sen. Hillary Clinton has accepted an offer from President-elect Barack Obama to become the next secretary of state

Sen. Hillary Clinton has accepted the position of secretary of state in the Obama administration, FOX News has confirmed.

The formal announcement is expected after Thanksgiving.

The New York Times, citing two Clinton confidants, said that the former First Lady reached the decision after further discussions about her role with President-elect Barack Obama.

Clinton will give up her New York Senate seat, which she has held for eight years, to join forces with her former rival, who beat her for the Democratic presidential nomination in a bruising contest.

Hope Hillary practices her “ducking”, “bobbing” and “weaving” so she can avoid enemy fire abroad

The only upside is that maybe this will keep her off the supreme court.
