I am a big supporter of President-Elect Barack Obama and was glad that he had not made Hilary Clinton his running mate. At the time I felt that between Hilary and Bill they would want to interfere too much in his leadership.

I am still ambivalent about Obama appointing her as a possible Secretary of State but am leaning more towards support for this than otherwise. She really knows a lot of world leaders and can interact very successfully with world leaders, especially Western allies.

What are the chances that she might use a good first term as Secretary of State to propel herself as front runner for Democratic nomination when Obama tries to go for a second term to complete his long-term plans?
