Mr. President-Elect: Judge Abner Mikva Is Right About Sen. Clinton as Secretary of State
There are many annoying aspects of the noise machine that is blaring that arrogant and cacophonous yet familiar mantra: "Clinton is inevitable." We heard it for all of 2007, and we're hearing it all over again.
The Trouble with Hillary
The question is whether the good to be had by appointing Hillary Clinton to a high position in the incoming government outweighs the bad. Is she really worth all the baggage? No, she isn't.

Obama: Choose Bill Richardson, Lee Hamilton, Dick Lugar, Al Gore or Chuck Hagel -- but not Hillary Clinton -- as your Secretary of State

Obama will not choose her because she's a woman. He will choose her because she has shown visionary leadership on two of the critical international (and moral) questions of our age.
How Far Will Obama Take 'Team of Rivals' Approach? ... Hillary? McCain? Romney? Lieberman?
Sen. Clinton is obviously qualified and I think America would love to see a new government that wasn't simply made-up of cronies but of people with differing viewpoints who come together for the good of the country.
