madam secretary


Is she really qualified? Yes, she does have 'stature' as Obama says and of course it's brilliant politics and anybody would be better than Madeleine Albright, but...

Eric Holder for Attorney General? Bad idea. Holder made the case for the most controversial Clinton pardons eight years ago and is very soft on crime, as is the President-elect.

Retired Marine General Jim Jones as National Security Advisor? Good call. I love the Marines.

Arizona Governor Janet Napolitano as Director of Homeland Security? Bad idea. Knowing 'border issues' is great and I salute the effort she's put forth on illegal immigration, but putting any Democrat in charge of Homeland Security is a terrible idea. Obama kept Gates, he should keep Chertoff, too.

Heck, put it back in the hands of Tom Ridge. He's a Republican, sure, but he's not much of a conservative. Plus, he's do a competent job. That's why Bush picked him in the first place.

I'm reminded of something Vice President Cheney said. They (the terrorists) only have to be good once. We (our defenses) have to be good every time.

Napolitano seems like an unnecessary gamble in this job.

Yeah, but we cast the die on our biggest gamble on November 4th.

We have four years, at least, to watch it play out.

Napolitano was apparently the legal counsel for Anita Hill when the left tried to destroy Clarence Thomas.
