Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton will quit her Senate seat and accept the Secretary of State position, according to press reports. She will join Eric Holder, the former deputy attorney general under her husband, now in his new Position of Attorney general.
Obama seems to be going through bill Clinton's old Rolodex, searching for a cabinet. In part he is pulling people that were a part of the Clinton administration, but he is also going beyond, and reaching out to assemble a team of smart people that will follow his lead and start solving problems.
If you come downstairs in your home and you see a water pipe has broken, and your basement is filling up with water - Just off the water! It's not about ideology, or proving a point- It's about taking logical steps to address a problem. Shut off the water, get what ever you can off the floor and onto higher ground, call your insurance agent to report the claim, start cleaning up the mess.
It is that same approach that we need towards the problems our country faces (and there are many) I'm glad to see that Obama is not afraid to surround himself with strong, smart, talented people.
