1. everyone else?
Edited on Mon Nov-17-08 09:29 PM by ErinBerin84
I haven't read/heard that many reports that go as far as The Guardian (and I don't read Drudge), even in the reports that claim Hillary is a top choice.

16. Did we ever get official confirmation that she was really OFFERED
the job?

Like did Obama or someone from his team officially on the record say yes, we offered her the job? I think the answer is yes, but I must have missed it.

25. yes, no one has said anything on the record. It's annoying.
And some reports conflict each other.

27. Oh fuck, how ridiculous.
So it's gone from "she's been offered the job" to now she's "taken it" and yet none of this is from official sources or anything on the record.

Gah. Done with this topic until it's something official. Watch this be much ado about nothing.

23. Drudge jumps on everything hoping to score.
the vetting process takes time- ti isn't over this fast. Seems to me someone is trying to push the inevitability button here.
