Hillary getting a Cabinet position? Did the Brits scoop us? Plus - The Vanity Fair article on Bill Clinton link is HERE!!!!

Pam's House Blend mentions it first.

Per the UK Telegraph:
Hillary Clinton will be offered a dignified exit from the presidential race and the prospect of a place in Barack Obama's cabinet under plans for a "negotiated surrender" of her White House ambitions being drawn up by Senator Obama's aides.

The former First Lady would get the chance to pilot Mr Obama’s reforms of the American healthcare system if she agrees to clear the path to his nomination as Democratic presidential candidate.

Senior figures in the Obama camp have told Democrat colleagues that the offer to Mrs Clinton of a cabinet post as health secretary or to steer new legislation through the Senate will be a central element of their peace overtures to the New York senator.

Mr Obama said on Thursday that he believed he would have secured the support of enough delegates to make him the standard bearer of his party in November’s presidential election by the end of this week.

I'm waiting and wondering to see if anyone else picks this up.

Not-so-positive Clinton news:

Americablog reports on the Clinton reaction to the "Vanity Fair" article accusing Bill of inappropriate behavior...again...

John also conveniently provides us with a LINK to the article as well as a LINK to Ben Smith's Blog which has the 2000 word angry response memo from the Clintons.

My reception of this article post-Hillary's campaign is very different that what it would have been pre-campaign. (i.e. I'm much more likely to believe it.)

I'll let you know after I read it.
