I like the arizona pick, that really makes sense and seems to be wife. But I am really unsure about the Clinton pick. his liberal illuminati bashed her so badly less then a year ago, how can they be best friends now? I just don't get it!

Based on his "present" votes so far on the economic bailout and the Big 3, Obama is going to delegate the economic solutions to the Congress for control. He will move toward the global governance and regulated market that Bush has provided with the G-20 and allow the special interest groups of regulatory capture (lawyers, environmentalists and organized labor) to provide the guidance on his national security, immigration, and foreign policy. His approach to foreign policy will be very much like Clinton's, i.e. he will not commit U.S. forces to U.S. national interests alone to avoid being unilateral. He will commit forces to international interests through multilateral agreements in pursuit of global governance. HillBill has been there and done it, although not really under fire (it all depends on how you define under fire). "Only a genuinely multinational armed force can intervene in violent conflicts to enforce generally accepted standards of human rights and democratic practices. Such peacekeeping is one important function that must be strengthened within a new global governance." - Democratic Socialists of America, Where We Stand, Section 4. He will internationalize our military and if his talks about radicalizing the justice system have any meaning, he will place them under the control of the ICC.

Why would Hillary want to serve under someone she believes is unfit to be POTUS? What has happened that makes him fit now? Nothing. One gets the impression that nothing that goes on in Washington is what it seems. We can't get the truth and the whole truth from the MSM, either. b.o. doesn't show any signs of being a great leader - and his selection of people to fill his cabinet seats confirms that he doesn't have the experience to even recognize who else could do these jobs besides those who did them for the Clintons. Not looking good. It will be interesting to see what happens when the folks who voted for him realize that they aren't going to be any better off.

I guess I don't understand the Clinton pick. Her unfavorable ratings in the US are amongst the highest. I think most of them are caused because most people feel she'll say what ever she needs to say to get her way. No convictions or honor. Is there some disconnect here? Does BO really think foreign leaders will believe anything that comes out of her mouth? Wow..even this choice is worse than I thought he would do. Makes you pine for the days of Sandy Berger!

This is very strange. As a Presidential candidate Mr. Obama ran on a platform of "change." Now he is appointing former Clinton Administration officials to run his Administration. Two things come to mind. The first is that Mr. Obama was all talk without much substance. Second is that the Clintons very much are driving the President Elect's decision making behind the scenes. It appears that a Clinton like Presidency is in the making.

The American Troika; Barack Obama, Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi, like every other totalitarian regime in history, need a serviceable minister of propaganda. Who better to represent the new American paradigm to the world than Hillary Clinton? The terraforming of America by the leftists has begun, we will be remade into the more acceptable likeness of Western Europe. The long suffering, liberal turmoil is at an end. America can at last take it’s place at the adult table beside the other more progressive socialist leader nations of the West. ‘Tis a consummation Devoutly to be wished. www.digitalpublius.com

Obama should open a consulate in Somalia and make Clinton Ambassador to Somalia.

Why don't all you negative right wing conservatives move to the center and let's all pull the new wagon together for the good of this great nation? BO seems to be working his butt off to get us going in a better direction. What more can you ask?

We will see if he picks her today. I'm pretty sure he will, because he can't afford to snub her, or those Hillary supporters will not vote him or his left-wing illuminati cabinet in again.

Way to go Pres. Obama! The very poorest republican conservatives would go without food so that the CEO's can use taxpayers money given to them as a last apeasement attempt by former Pres. Bush. Bush's way is out. You're doing a great job by capping the pay on those coming over to Washington for a handout before you even became president. Don't allow them to rape their employees, the government, the investors and everyone else. GO BARACK!
