Jim Geraghty points out an unusual item from Reuters yesterday, in which the State Department announced that Hillary Clinton would not accompany Barack Obama to Moscow next week. The nations chief diplomat will stay home while Obama pursues nuclear reductions with Russia, one of his big diplomatic projects, one in which observers would presume that the Secretary of State would have substantial involvement:

In whomever has the most 'power' at the time.
Hey Hillary, Secretary of State; Where is Obama’s original birth certificate?
And when Hillary runs in 2012, she has senatorial experience and foreign policy experience. She’ll be too old to run in 2016, so I think it’s more likely than not that she’ll resign in about a year or so to prepare to run.
Hillary stands little chance of taking the WH in 2012, if that's her ultimate aim. Obama and the young, hip, liberals have already moved on to a new "young blood" era.
Besides, once 2012 rolls around, Hillary will be even more of a relic of the distant past for Democrats. Her last best shot was 2008, I'm afraid.
It sure does smell like the Clintons and why I could never figure out why he surrounded himself with so many Clintonites and then remembered — he didn’t have many people he was close with that could have been appointed — Ayers, Dohrn, Farrakhan, Rezko, Rev Wright, et al, would not have gotten Senate confirmation so he took Clinton retreds and then doesn’t have cabinet meetings and neutralized Hillary (he thinks).
It looks like he has the people recommended by that tribe of lefists headed by Ayers/Dohrn installed as Czars so they would not have to go through Senate Confirmation.
Even Emmanuel is a Clintonite. The Clintons will get Zero eventually for the fraud of the caucuses his ACORN people perpetrated.
My guess is Hillary is close to resigning.
All good things come from the King, bad things from his ministers.
I expect she’ll break whatever bone she has to to put some distance between herself and Zer0’s policy flusterclucks.
Anyone surprised?
the State Department announced that Hillary Clinton would not accompany Barack Obama to Moscow next weekGosh, and Plugs went to Iraq without Hillary. Why we're on the subject, Michael Jackson went to the afterlife without Hillary. And Bill Clinton went to NY state to "campaign" for some Demwit candidate, and probably is gettin' laid without Hillary. Worst of all, I'm going to put this carton of cottage cheese back in the fridge and check my clothes dryer, and Hillary is nowhere in sight!
I still don't wish it - I think Zero's marginally more evil, but she's way smarter.
None of his own peeps could pass Senate confirmation - that's why he named the Clinton gang to the Cabinet, then sidestepped them with his czars who did NOT have to be confirmed. I still want to know how their paychecks are being accounted for.
You’ve got the same view of the Clintonite/Czar situation I do. Either we’re both brilliant, or we’re buying the same brand of tinfoil.
You've got a point, there. So, what are his Clinton appointees now, chopped liver?
They're basically sorting paperclips in very plush offices at taxpayer expense.
When Huma puts her foot down, that’s just IT!!
Yeah, but does she and Bill know that? ;0)
