Why Hillary for Secretary of State? Obama is steering between the Scylla and Charybdis* of Hillary and Bill. His eyes are open and fixed on the far shore of genuine governance. (Because this is real and not Greek mythology and he already has the Golden Fleece, let's note that Obama's navigation also brilliantly and effectively keeps Bill in a box. Bill can no longer be de facto Secretary of State of the Clinton Global Initiative. He also had to show his Funderwear and will now have to ask permission to buy any more . . . .)
*From Wikipedia . . . . "Scylla was a creature who dwelt in a rock, and regularly ate sailors who passed by too closely. Her appearance has varied in classical literature; she was described by Homer in The Odyssey as having six heads perched on long necks along with twelve feet, while in Ovid's Metamorphoses, she was depicted as having the upper body of a nymph, with her midriff composed of dogs' heads. Charybdis had a single gaping mouth that sucked in huge quantities of water and belched them out three times a day, creating whirlpools."
