OK. Pick your dream cabinet (including Supreme Court justices).

[ColbertWatcher]

I say Erwin Chemerinsky for Supreme Court Justice.

Who do you see in an Obama cabinet?

[704wipes]

1. Bill Clinton for UN Ambassador or Richardson

what a sea change...

or Bill Richardson would be a fine choice too...

[ColbertWatcher]

3. Yes. Time to put the adults back in charge! n/t

[Sedona]

2. Big Dog on SCOTUS

[ColbertWatcher]

4. Another good pick, but would he take it? n/t

[Greyhound]

20. I think Hillary would be better as Associate Justice.

Bill as some kind of Goodwill Ambassador at Large (as opposed to being pigeon holed in the UN or a single country).

[roamer65]

5. Secretary of State Wesley Clark.

[roamer65]

7. ..and Secretary of Defense Colin Powell.

[ColbertWatcher]

17. I actually like Bill Clinton as Secretary of State! n/t

[jgraz]

6. NO ONE for Secretary of Homeland Security

Get rid of that ridiculous boondoggle.

[Greyhound]

21. Absofreakinglutely. n/t

[Fire_Medic_Dave]

8. Who do you think he'll get to replace on SCOTUS?

[roamer65]

11. John Paul Stevens will be first.

Appointed in 1975 by Jerry Ford.

9. Howard Dean Secretary of HEW. I heard on MSNBC that there

would be NO retreads in the Obama Cabinet, and I LIKE THAT! Bring in the new faces of people he knows are great at what they do!

I don't view Howard as a retread. He's never been in Washington, but thanks to HIM and his 50 State strategy, we have TONIGHT! I think he would be terrific working on our health care system because he knows the flaws from the inside!

[kurt_cagle]

12. Nah, keep Howard as head of DNC

He's going to need to nurse a whole new generation of Democratic politicians coming in the pipeline, and there's still a lot of work to do there. There are many qualified doctors for HEW, but there's only one Howard Dean.

[napi21]

16. I got the feeling he was done with the DNC. I don't know if it was

his decision or what, but I keep hearing he will not be chairman after this year. I would LOVE him to keep the job, but NOBODY has even hinted at that.

[MiniMe]

14. Except I would love to see Richardson in the cabinet

There are a lot of posts he could fill, but he has earned it.

[ColbertWatcher]

15. I agree, Richardson is a good man.

He may have his faults, but he is mostly a decent guy.

10. Here you go.

CQ Politics. Build a cabinet for President Obama.

Omg-- I got to type that-- President Obama -- for the very first time, like.. for real! :-)

Neat exercise:

13. Anyone pick a DoJ? n/t

[Greyhound]

22. I'd ask Gerry Spence for his recommendation for DoJ. n/t

[chill_wind]

18. Kick. n/t

19. Kick. n/t
