Secretary of State Hillary Clinton told CNN’s Wolf Blitzer today that should she would not seek a second term in her position. She also counted out a future run for Vice President or President.
If you’re like me, having Hillary Clinton in the Obama Administration was a major plus. Mrs. Clinton well knows how to take that 3 a.m. call, indeed, she may be the best thing the Obama Administration’s got.
Mrs. Clinton’s unexpected announcement right in the middle of several international crises — and this far out from 2012 — has to put President Obama’s re-election team on notice.
This administration appears to be coming apart at the seams — at a very bad time.
Hasn’t she been saying that for months?
Not that definitively.
Boo. Hiss. I guess I can believe you like Hilary, but I can’t believe that if she had won the nomination and the White House that you’d be saying anything this nice about her. You’re simply using this as a wedge into the White House. As if cabinet members have not departed from ever single White House throughout every year of every administration. This is a non-story.
Two words — Colin Powell. Oh, two more — Henry Kissinger.
