Hillary Clinton Expected to Accept Secretary of State Post from fox

Hillary Clinton is expected to accept the position of secretary of state in the Obama administration, FOX News has confirmed. A formal announcement is planned for after Thanksgiving. Reports indicate that Sen. Clinton made her decision to accept quite recently, after persistent courting by Obama and his transition team. ABC News reports that Clinton even was leaning toward rejecting Obama's offer, until his staff members flooded her with calls to convince her to say yes. Clinton had told the Obama transition team on Wednesday that she didn't want to give up her independence in the Senate, sources told ABC News.

Does she have any foreign policy experience beyond traveling the world as First Lady?

Billy will be calling the shots from the sidelines and together they will steal Obama's thunder. They love the limelight.
