This report should add fuel to the Hillary-as-Sec-of-State rumor mill:

WASHINGTON (AP) — President-elect Barack Obama has met in Chicago with Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, who is under consideration for secretary of state.

A Democratic official says the two former presidential rivals met Thursday afternoon in Obama’s downtown office. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because the official was not authorized to release the information.

The motorcade of Clinton, who receives Secret Service protection as a former first lady, was seen leaving the office complex shortly before Obama left for the day. Clinton spokesman Philippe Reines would say only “Senator Clinton had no public schedule yesterday.”

So, did Obama make the offer ? Did Hillary accept ?

Inquiring minds want to know.

    I hope they’re just floating this rumor to see what the reaction is. SoS needs to be a diplomat, not a politician.
