President-elect Obama is on track to nominate Sen. Hillary Clinton as his secretary of state after Thanksgiving, three aides on Obama's transition team told CNN Thursday.
Clinton senior adviser Philippe Reines repeated a statement that "any and all speculation about Cabinet or other administration appointments is for President-Elect Obama's transition team to address."

Obama is building his team very intelligently and has the foresight and wisdom to choose the right people for the right job.

TV News is announcing that Hillary just accepted the position.
She's okay.
Richardson would have been better.
(I've probably said that here a dozen times)
I can only imagine what Michelle is thinking right now.
Anyways - should be interesting. Love that 'change'.

WASHINGTON — Hillary Rodham Clinton has decided to give up her Senate seat and accept the position of secretary of state, making her the public face around the world for the administration of the man who beat her for the Democratic presidential nomination, two confidants said Friday.
The apparent accord between perhaps the two leading figures in the Democratic Party climaxed a week-long drama that riveted the nation’s capital.
Mrs. Clinton came to her decision after additional discussion with President-elect Barack Obama about the nature of her role and his plans for foreign policy, said one of the confidants, who insisted on anonymity to discuss the situation.

The New York Times is now reporting that Hillary will be the next Sec. of State, talk about a Clinton comeback to power, and all after Obama promised change.
More of the same old good ole boys network, we need a new name for that by the way, some might argue but Hillary isn't a boy. But she is in the notwork of good ole boys.

You don't need a new name...
It's called croniism.
Already been coined.
Oh and btw, as I have mentioned before, the change is in POLICY not PEOPLE. I never expected a change in people other than BHO as Pres.
