There were a number of indications that Hillary didn't have final say on all of State appointees. Whether she backed Nuland, I don't know. If she backed Nuland, does that make her 1 with Robert Kagan? James Carville seems to be married to Mary Matalin without becoming a neocon.

In reply to I was referring to the phrase

Yes, in Vermont. Maybe it's about the only way a Democratic Socialist makes it to the White House; he's insulated in a safe backwater where he is free to beat a progressive drum, steadily and consistently for thirty years until the moment catches up with him.

I think you're right. I also think politicians at this level hold far fewer grudges than we think. They know the game. They also know what it takes to get things done. With Hillary, Obama got a great SoS, healed whatever parts of the party needed healing, and got access to the Clinton network of people who were, after 8 years of Busg in the White House, the last group of Democrats with high level federal experience to draw from, outside the hired bureaucracy. She didn't extract anything from him and he benefited from his good sense.

In reply to She got her pound of flesh.

By all reports from several sources including Obama himself Hillary did not want to be Secretary of State. Obama repeatedly sought her out and convinced her to be his S of S. We cannot know his reasoning. Perhaps he really did think she would make the best S of S. Perhaps he did it to heal the party after a bitter primary battle. Who knows, but your claim that she got her pound of flesh is ~~fallacious~~ bullshit.

In reply to No one has mentioned that

Democrats were also guilty of obstructionism by blocking critical legislation

When the nation had a chance to discourage millions of illegals from crossing the border by enacting E-Verify; the Democrats were not interested in any legislation to resolve an issue, many Americans saw as a future problem.

Now the Nation is faced with the problem the Democrats created, when they turned a blind eye to the 11 million +illegals,

The Democrats never saw the illegals as a problem, Amnesty was always their goal.

Who didn't see what the Democrats obstructionist plans would lead too. Amnesty

If the Democrats decry deportation loud enough their objective of Amnesty is still accomplished

For the Democrats, it's either their way or they obstruct.

I fear I must dissent from the view that her vote in October, 2002 was right. If she didn't know that the resolution made war inevitable, she should have.

In reply to Thank you for a highly

I agree, Eric, our bench looks really good. The debates will be issue oriented and informative. I have followed many of them and their speeches are sane with good reasoning. I may not agree with some of it but compared to the ranting of the Koch Party, we should have a good election. I am hoping that there will be some long coat tails for congress.

No one has mentioned that Republicans in Congress prime directive will be to ensure the failure of any Democrat administration with help from corporate controlled both siderist MSM. Hillary has the most experience in dealing with the GOP nihilists and obstructionists.

Preventing the election of, or blocking policy of, a self proclaimed socialist with no federal executive experience would be more easily accomplished by the Republican mafia like machine.
