What Does Clinton Want?
Speaking in Kuwait yesterday, Bill Clinton sounds like he wants his wife, Sen. Hillary Clinton, to become the next Secretary of State in the Obama administration.
He claims not to know much about the discussions, but adds, “If I did, I wouldn’t tell you.”
Meanwhile, Mike Allen reports that the Obama team, “after all but offering SecState to Senator Clinton, is expressing EXASPERATION with the Clinton camp for the difficulty in getting a clean vet on President Bill Clinton’s many entanglements.”
However, Ben Smith says sources tell him that Sen. Clinton herself is conflicted about taking the job.
