White House kills Hillary SCOTUS buzz
The White House moved quickly today to squelch the widening speculation that Hillary Clinton could be nominated to the Supreme Court, as Senator Orrin Hatch suggested this morning.
"The President thinks Secretary Clinton is doing an excellent job as Secretary of State and wants her to remain in that position," said White House spokesman Tommy Vietor.
Clinton's spokesman had said she was flattered by Hatch's flotation, though happy in her current posts, and others in Clinton's circle had quietly responded warmly to the notion.
But Veitor's comment is aimed at putting an end to the speculation.

That would be a leap of incompetence, even for Obama. Does HRC even have any judicial experience?

Stupid political move by the regime. Best way to rid the Democrat Party of the Clinton’s influence, kick her upstairs to the Court.

“The President thinks Secretary Clinton is doing an excellent job as Secretary of State and wants her to remain in that position.”
As evidenced by the recent strains in the US/Israeli relations, US/Afghan relations, diplomatic screw-ups with the Brits, being mocked by the French, complete disregard by Ira, etc, etc
Yeah - she’s a SUPERSTAR!

Shes a cr*ppy Sec of State, and would be an even worse Justice. But, she would likely be older than some of the potential candidates and an older liberal might be the best we can hope for.

I bet Barry is hoping to be the first POTUS and SCOTUS in the US. Both jobs held by the smartest man in the world according to Barry.

Does HRC even have any judicial experience?Yes. Hillary repeatedly lied before a judge when she said "I don't recall".

Hatch is pretty clever, starting a rift between Hillary supporters and the 0bama regime.
