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...

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...
