Obama and Clinton – a dream team?

After weeks of speculation, President-elect Barack Obama has now confirmed that his Secretary of State will be his arch-rival for the Democratic nomination Hillary Clinton. Now three months ago, when Clinton gave her endorsement speech at the Democratic National Convention, I did a posting which argued:

“If I was Barack Obama, I would promise that – if she and Bill are really seen to deliver for him in the general election – when he enters the White House she will be put in charge of health care reform to complete the task she started during her husband’s presidency.”

Clearly no deal was done at the time but perhaps Hillary and Bill got the message. I was wrong about the actual post offered Hillary, but heh I was on the right lines. Maybe Barack reads NightHawk …
