Today Hillary Clinton's motorcade was seen in Chicago. She met President-elect Obama to discuss possible role in the administration. At this point it is pretty likely that she could be the next Secretary of State. I would've preferred to have her as the Secretary of Health & Human Services instead of Sec. of State given the amount of work she has done for health care. I preferred someone else for Secretary of State quite frankly. However, what I am most worried about is that if she does decide to run in 2012, she could use her time as Cabinet member to discuss how unorganized or potentially incompetent Obama may be behind-the-scenes to prevent Obama from running again.
But here is the best thing about her being Sec. of State. First of all Sec. of States have to travel abroad consistently to meet foreign leaders. Imagine the powerful message Obama will be sending by showing foreign leaders that he picked his worst, toughest opponent. If you're a foreign leader you would think to yourself as you're smiling and shaking HRC's hand in front of cameras: "Didn't she lose humiliatingly to the new US President? Wow...Obama really is willing to unite."
