2. Er...what is the BEST way to mean that, as opposed to the WORST way?

:wtf:

(Having said that, I'd like to suggest that all future State Of The Union speeches, by whichever president gives them, should be ended whenever the Speaker Of The House chooses to stand up and shout that.)

5. There are so many other reasons to be for or against her, that I have to choose other
And I dont think she'll put corporations first as Secretary of state. All those corporations she'd deal with.

8. No. What diplomatic credentials does she have?
Especially as compared to someone like Richardson or Clark? There just seem to be far more qualified candidates out there than Senator Clinton.

On the other hand, she is smart enough to pick the ball up, run with it and be successful. She isn't whom I would choose for the spot but if she were to get it I wouldn't worry about it much. I was just hoping we'd see some new faces in the Obama administration.

9. I don't know...
She's qualified, but the Clinton drama seems to be taking all the oxygen out of the room.

I hope Obama is smarter than the "pundints." ;)
