HRC Accepts Secretary of State Offer

According to the Long Island Press, Sen. Hillary Clinton has accepted the offer of Secretary of State. The NY Times credits two "confidants;" says "that her camp believes they have a done deal."

This may be a premature announcement, a trial balloon of sorts. It is, after all, mid-afternoon Friday on the East coast. What do you think? (See that trusty dusty poll to the right?)

See Deborah White's profile of Clinton. And Keith Porter weighs in, reflecting some of my initial thoughts (2012 and Iraq).
