The fun never ends - It seems in Obama's bid to make sure he is not the next Carter, he is working overtime to bring about the exact same administration that Hillary would have.

Unless it involves separating idiots from their money, this dude doesn't seem to have an original thought in his head.

All I thought he ever did was to mouth platitudes.

Tom Daschle.

(sigh)

A major whiner, pork-pusher, and lobbyist. Dirty enough for the likes of Barack Hussein Obama, though.

The buzz about Hillary Clinton becoming SoS (still skeptical here) kind of reminds me of Jimmuh's appointment of Muskie, though, but are old Clinton retreads really that much better?

Obama is tapping people from the Clinton years. That's not change he promised. Looks like Obama is another extension of the Clinton years.
