But if the Senate is closely divided after the election, the White House may be reluctant to risk his seat, particularly if Sen. Scott P. Brown, a Republican, is defeated, because Brown could then jump into a special election for Kerry’s seat.

On the Democratic side, Susan E. Rice, the ambassador to the United Nations, was the clear front-runner for months. After the deadly attack on a Libya diplomatic post, the White House sent her to the Sunday television programs, raising her prominence for a possible promotion.

Thomas E. Donilon, the national security adviser, would like to be secretary of state, friends say, but would face confirmation questions about security leaks and his past work for Fannie Mae, the mortgage company at the heart of the housing meltdown, and he has told Obama he wants to stay in his current post.
Tomorrow ought to be a very interesting day. And that idiot dempsey should already have been frogmarched into oblivion,
