The Obama Appointments

SO at last it's official - Hillary Clinton to be Secretary of State, one of the three most important appointments in any American administration. In a year that didn't have Barack Obama around Mrs Clinton might easily have been President-elect by now so the US will be represented in the world by one of its most capable politicians. This is very necessary: the damage that George W Bush's policies have done to America's standing in the word is incalculable and as Secretary of State Condoleezza RIce has not had the diplomatic weight to minimise it.
