[AtomicKitten]

5. this story is too leaky to believe more leaks

[Sebastian Doyle]

6. It's not official

Raw Story is just repeating Politico. And Politico is so far up the Clintons asses, everybody who works for them has brown eyes.

[babylonsister]

how that made me laugh! Thank you!

[sellitman]

This shameless attempt by the Clintons to manipulate Obama through press leaks is pathetic.

11. CNN blasted it with the ever popular non-journalistic "Aide" saying it was so

[MilesColtrane]

17. Hillary Clinton Nomination Is On Track

Cabinet

Hillary Clinton Nomination Is On Track

By Anne E. Kornblut

Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton is on track to be nominated for secretary of state in the Obama administration, transition aides said on Thursday night.

Days of back and forth followed the meeting between President-elect Barack Obama and Clinton last week in Chicago, when the two principals first discussed the post, with advisers to Clinton suggesting she might not want the job and questions persisting about the business work and international ties of her husband, former president Bill Clinton.

But the former president agreed to a thorough vetting, and Obama advisers did not back away from reports that the New York senator was the president-elect's top pick. On Thursday night, aides said that the vetting issues have been resolved, and the selection could occur soon, perhaps immediately after Thanksgiving.

It's officially still a rumor.

[stillcool]

21. Perhaps...immediately after Thanksgiving...

oy. it never ends. I like this one...

Update 11/20 at 10:24 PM EST: CNN is reporting that President-elect Obama is "on track" to name Hillary Clinton as Secretary of State soon after Thanksgiving, according to two sources close to the transition who spoke with the news network's Jessica Yellin and one source who spoke to CNN's Ed Henry.
During the report, Anderson Cooper emphasized that the network was being very careful with its wording and that the final decision still depended on Clinton making it through the vetting process currently underway.

Obama "will be going forward with this after Thanksgiving," said Henry.

28. Good

friggin grief.

[Rosa Luxemburg]

19. I'm sure that she will be better than Condi?

[John Q. Citizen]

20. Man, the drama is killing me. no, I mean it. It's (the drama) is fucking driving me nuts.

Hillary and drama.

They are so the same thing.

[tandem5]

31. I'm really not sure what she has done or said in the last

few weeks that could be described as eliciting drama. I think any drama that does exist squarely belongs to the painted-faced blowhards leaning over Lucite and those certain sedentary masses sporting an LCD backlight tan and a mean case of carpal tunnel syndrome.

[chitty]

22. It was just on MSNBC news

[vanderBeth]

24. Is this the same story from AP?

[Sebastian Doyle]

25. Yep. All just bullshit from Politic-ho and their 2 "mystery sources"

:eyes:

No confirmation whatsoever.

[vanderBeth]

26. Okey-Doke. So after all this, we know...???

It's like fucking high school.

[Sebastian Doyle]

27. That's exactly what it's like

And guess who are playing the parts of last years homecoming queen and king who don't want to give up the crown when their year's up.
