Obama has named his national security team, including Hillary Clinton at Secretary of State, but the other notable item is that the UN Ambassador will be a Cabinet-level position again.  That's pushing into Hillary's territory, isn't it Barack?

The Footstool, Jim Martin, campaigned in Macon on Saturday in front of a closed tobacco plant to blame "Saxby Economics" for the closing.  I think Martin and the Democrats would sell their souls for this Senate seat.
