More likely the opposite happened. Isn't it said that Obama is susceptible to following the last opinion he hears? That Rahm and other senior advisers tightly controlled access to avoid just such flip-flops? And now many of those advisers are gone.
Perhaps Hillary had marching orders, acted upon them, and then Obama changed his mind. Isn't she about the only adult in the administration? (OMG, I'm defending Hillary)
Watch to see what Hillary does. Flying ashtray and lamp danger is high.
Such is my desperation to be able to trust anyone in this administration, that I am willing to believe Hillary was blindsided by Obama. No matter how ardently leftist she is, she knows what her job description is: She is to represent the views and policies of the president. I seriously doubt that she would do something that would so badly damage her credibility. (I realize that using that word to apply to a Clinton is risible).
