Hillary for secretary of state?

Others wondered last night if the Obama camp - which is very disciplined about unwanted leaks - is even serious about floating her name or simply trying to compliment her by suggesting she's in the running.

I doubt Obama wants Hillary in his cabinet, and frankly, I don't know why Hillary would accept a job like that.  She'll stay in her safe seat in the Senate where she can make trouble without having any actual responsibilities.  I suspect that the Obama people are trying to disrupt Hillary's behind-the-scenes moves to secure more power in the Senate, where she'd prefer to be Majority Leader within a few years.
