1. Why would Clintonites attack that? Holbrooke was a Clinton backer in the primaries.

2. I actually think he would be the most effective SoS around.

He really is a State Dept. insider; he knows a lot of people and could get things done.

4. Wasn't he on The Colbert Report when Willie Nelson was on?
He obviously has a great sense of humor.


But don't we need new blood? Isn't that what we voted for????

5. I hope not.
Lets have some change instead. Holbrooke is so 1998.

Break out that famous Obama audacity and surprise everyone with a fresh face.

6. I hope not. Anyone who goes along with the neoconservative idea
of pre-emptive or preventive war I do not support.
