Hillary as SOS

The NY Times weighs the idea of Hillary Clinton as Secretary of State. Let the frenzy of speculation begin...
I have to say, I'm not against the idea, especially after it was pointed out that Kennedy shot down Hillary's bid to head a sub-committee on health care... Perhaps it would be better to use her skills in the vast frightening arena of world politics...:

"In reality, Mrs. Clinton and Mr. Obama are much closer to each other on the global issues that will confront the Obama administration. While Mrs. Clinton voted to authorize the Iraq war in 2002, so did a majority of her Democratic colleagues in the Senate. Since then, she and Mr. Obama, who opposed the Iraq war, have found their way to similar positions on a timetable for withdrawing American troops. They both support sending additional troops to Afghanistan, and agree on climate change and Israeli-Palestinian peace efforts.

And while they publicly sparred during the primary over whether Mr. Obama, as president, should meet with Iranian leaders without preconditions, Mr. Obama has since said that such an outreach would first involve lower-level preparatory work, a position that is closer to Mrs. Clinton’s."
