Since when do SOS use leaks and manipulation to get what they want? I can't imagine how she would be at diplomacy if this is her idea of persuasion. Its more like a cudgel than anything else.

1. I think Bill and Hillary will play good cop/bad cop.

He will build her up while he tears Obama down (like in Fl when he said that Obama said to him and Hillary about the financial crisis - tell me what to do). In other words, Hillary is the qualified one while Obama has to ask her and Bill what to do. Meanwhile, Hillary will play the "who me" role.

3. Its a nightmare!
I wish Obama hadn't read that danged team of rivals book. He tries to give Hillary a relevant role and she thanks him by giving him grief.

2. I don't think we know who leaked what, when, and whether or not any of it is true
just sayin'

your point is well taken, based upon assumptions not in evidence

4. Well the original Obama team was airtight.
It could be that Rahm is the problem here, but it looks more convenient for Hillary's team.
