I'm probablyr reading too much into this but it's interesting Bill is stumping for Martin in GA but not Hillary, who was a real trooper for senatorial candidates this past election.

1. Even though John Mccain was demonized for the campaign he run, the whole script for the Mccain campaign was written by Hillary during the primaries.

2. Hillary doesn't agree with Obama's foregin policy stance on diplomacy with rogue nations.

3. Hill and Bill come with a lot baggage that will bring the Obama administration into negative light and continue to overshaddow the President himself.

4. The Obama-Clinton relationship will be under the microscope and heavy scutiny. Every disagreement will leak to the press who will then blow it out of proportion and stoke the fire of animosity/suspiciousness that already exists.

5. Does anyone remember "shame on you Barack Obama!" and sniper fire?

6. World leaders (especially russia and the middle east) will not be receptive to clinton due to her hawkish nature. Most people don't believe she has an open mind on most world issues.

7. Why in the world is Obama insisting on bombarding us with the obama-clinton drama? After two years of hearing Obama and clinton in the same breath, Obama should break free and be his own man.

8. Bill Richardson, John Kerry, Jack reed, Chuck hagel, Richard Holbrooke............These are all qualified people that come with no strings/drama attached.

............... The elections are over and one has to wonder why Obama is still trying to court the clinton supporters. If anything, she should have been picked as secretary of HHS since she has more experience in that area.

Connections between the Carlyle [Group] and the Bush family have created controversy, particularly in relation to the War on Terror and the Iraq War. George H. W. Bush and his Secretary of State James A. Baker III have at times been advisors to the group. One writer claimed that Saudi Arabian interests have given $1.4 billion to firms connected to the Bush family.[citation needed] Of this figure, $1.18 billion comes from contracts awarded to defense contractor Braddock, Dunn & McDonald, which Carlyle sold before George H. W. Bush became an advisor.[22] A Carlyle spokesman noted in 2003 that its 7% interest in defense industries was far less than several other Private equity firms.[23] The group has in the past had links with the Bin Laden family, although the group argues investment was relatively minor and made by relatives including a half brother to Osama Bin Laden who had "disowned" him.[24]

In February 2008, a U.S. Senate bill was introduced that would increase the regulation of nursing homes such as those run by HCR Manor Care which Carlyle purchased in December 2007.[25] Furthermore in February 2008, a bill was introduced in California that would have barred CalPERS from investing money "with private-equity firms that are partly owned by countries with poor records on human rights," which would include Carlyle because Mubadala Development is owned by part of the United Arab Emirates. The California bill was later withdrawn.[26]

Why is that, Karen? Why all the baseless gossip and innuendo about the Clintons, and yet you never write about Republicans in the same way? You, nor anyone at Time.

Hillary should take the job,if it indeed was offered, wow the world and have all those questioning the judgment *"swallow their long, poisoned tongues or pens".

*I wanted to be a bit more crude...but I abstained myself so that I would not be censured. But read between intentions regarding their long poisoned tongues or pens. It has to do with introducing them "where the sun don't shine".
