Hillary's not a good enough manager to be SoS [View All]

[midnight armadillo]

Hillary showed during the slow-motion train wreck of her campaign that she just doesn't have the management chops to run a large organization, although I think she'd make a fine diplomat. The Dept of State has been beaten bloody for the last 8 years, after Powell failed to stand up to Rumsfeld, followed by whatever trials they've gone through under Rice.

While Kerry might do fine, I'm starting to think that Richardson with his gubernatorial and diplomatic experience might be the best candidate for the job. It's not enough to patch up relations abroad, we also need the DoS to be a well-functioning institution.
