In the last analysis, I must admit that Obama's appointing Hillary as his Secretary of State is clever--he gets to keep a potential adversary at arm's length and under control. At the same time, however, I also think that she's a poor choice for the post of record, notwithstanding her considerable experience dodging Bosnian sniper fire and answering red telephones in the wee hours of the morning.
Anyhow, it suffices to say that the very thought of Bill squeezing into that dress horrifies the imagination.
