News reports say that soon-to-be-crowned President-elect of the World (but not Cobb County) Barack Obama will name former interminable primary foe Hillary Clinton as his Secretary of State.
(Would that make Bill the First State? Or does Delaware retain the title? Depends on which one is bigger. So it's a tossup.)
One pundit suggested that the Hillary ploy was a reminder of the "Keep your friends close, but keep your enemies closer" rule of politics.
Perhaps it goes back to those TV ads about the 3 a.m. phone call.
When the situation is heating up internationally, the person that gets the call at 3:01 a.m. is the Secretary of State.
That's payback, baby!
