so, okay: hillary clinton as barack obama's secretary of state. if you've read this blog much over the last year or so, you can probably guess my reaction. ("i just might want this woman sitting across the table from someone like mahmoud ahmadinejad." – 11/12/07) the possibility certainly has the political chatterers all a-twitter, on both sides of the aisle. and now time magazine's karen tumulty and massimo calabresi ask one of the most pertinent political questions of all:
"Would this move, if it happens, be just the first manifestation of that new kind of politics that Obama was promising in his presidential campaign? Or proof that he understands the oldest kind all too well?"
Wow - prescient quote from last November!
