Where in the World is Hillary?

After the down and dirty fight that Hillary Clinton put up in the democratic presidential primary, one might be forgiven for thinking that the “hatchet” may not be well and truly buried…

So when she was appointed Secretary of State, I was surprised and a little perturbed. Then I realized that it made perfect sense for Hillary to take the job. After all, all opportunists are bottom-feeders to an extent.

When I compare Hillary’s image as Secretary of State with that of, say Condoleezza Rice, I can only say that Rice had a tenacity and seriousness about the role that I liked. Clinton doesn’t seem to have the same bite or ruthlessness I had come to expect from her. She has lost her edge, in my opinion.

So where is Hillary? The US Department of State website states that a scheduled visit to Washington D.C. has been postponed due to the inclement weather. Metaphorically the same question could be answered; keeping herself as far away from Obama and his current problems as is humanly possible.
