Your choice of SOS for Secretary of State is quite appropriate, and, if intended, witty!
First: the RWNJ contention that this is some political thing between Hillary and Obama is simply ... ridiculous. Dear god. Does anybody ever effing get things first hand anymore, or do they just read third-hand blogs from third-rate writers?

No, I disagree with your assumption that the public alters parties automatically.

Hilary's chances of winning the Presidency are extremely good following Obama, because the economics are going to be so solid, and the GOP is going to continue into oblivion, with nobody viable (including Jeb) as a presidential candidate.

That, plus, all the people (like me) that would never have voted for Hillary in a million years in 2008, now are looking at a quite successful, proven, accomplished Secretary of State. Now every knows she could be president and handle it well. These four years have only greatly enhanced her chances across all political spectrums.

I think the GOP is done for quite some time as President, and I think they stand a good chance of losing the House, too.

You can laugh at Kerry all you want, but I don't know why you would. He would make an outstanding SOS, he's extremely knowlegable, has tons of foreign experience - he was next on the list after Hilary.
