Hillary Takes the Job - Doc - 11-21-2008 This is very disappointing. She owes the people of New York big time and she made a promise when she lost the nomination. http://thecaucus.blogs.nytimes.com/2008/11/21/clinton-to-accept-secretary-of-state-job/ 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. Re: Hillary Takes the Job - vision63 - 11-21-2008 Well, if it's true, then more power to her. Perhaps Nydia Velazquez will get the nod to replace her. But I know Jerrold Nadler wants if badly and he'd be a good Senator. Andrew Cuomo has Washington experience and could hold the seat I would think. Kirsten Gillibrand would be a great pick. Hillary however, owes herself first. Re: Hillary Takes the Job - mikeylikesit - 11-21-2008 Mitt Romney made a commitment to be their governor and the people of Massachusetts were most relieved to see him break that promise; maybe New Yorkers will come to feel the same way about Ms. Clinton. She'll no longer be a viable candidate in four or especially eight years, that and the fact she has international recognition which delivers clout makes her a good choice for SoS. The family income will take a big hit. edit: because it's now a compulsion. Re: Hillary Takes the Job - mick e - 11-21-2008 Stay tuned and watch that campaign debt disappear. Apparently the game afoot was Obama's desire to remove a potential opponent from the four-year horizon. A smart move on his part. Re: Hillary Takes the Job - vision63 - 11-21-2008 Though there is nothing really stopping her from running then except for executive privileged loyalties. I think her running days are over. It's all on Chelsea now. Cnn says that her aide says that she says that she's not decided just yet. So say's she.

I never understood what NYers saw in her. Clearly she saw you folks as a convenient stepping stone. Re: Hillary Takes the Job - deckeda - 11-21-2008 The Senate-as-stepping stone was my first impression way back when as well. But SoS will be the best thing for her career.
