That’s what Ben Smith is reporting, yesterday morning:

Andrea Mitchell reported this evening that Obama is considering Hillary Clinton as Secretary of State, something that’s been buzzed about as a possibility for a few days.

I haven’t been able to confirm it, and neither Obama nor Clinton camps would comment, though NBC apparently has confirmation that she went to Chicago today.

One interesting item: Clinton aides are not knocking the report down, which they might.

Since Ben wrote that, apparently, there are confirmations are coming from a number of sources, including the Washington Post:

There’s increasing chatter in [...]

The US Senate voted today to approve the FISA bill, including immunity for the telecomm companies who acted at the government’s request with the understanding they were receiving and acting on legal requests.  The bill was approved after Republicans agreed to allow Democrats more judicial and congressional oversight.  And the bill passed 69-28.
Bush is, of [...]

I was subjected to scenes of Barack and Hillary playing nice with each other on stage at a rally in Unity, New Hampshire.  It was a bit over the top.
I don’t know what the real content (if any) of their speeches consisted of, and the newscasts simply showed snippets of each of them saying cute [...]

In an unexpected move today (to Bill that is), Hillary Clinton announced that she is ending her campaign for the Presidency.  She is pledging her support of Barack Obama. 
I’m glad that’s over.  For now.
I have a feeling that regardless of who wins in November, we’re going to go through this all over again in 2012.

Who knows what’s going on right now, but Obama and Clinton are meeting together this evening.  At Hillary’s home.  Interviews with Obama today (just saw a recording on CNN), and he’s being very circumspect about what’s happening right now.
And the pundits are all going nuts over it.  It’s like the whole country is stalking these [...]

Just a few reflections on the day…
Politics:
News reports put Hillary ending her campaign on Friday or Saturday. As usual, I’ll believe it when I see it. It’s sad that Hillary has had such a hard time concluding her campain:
“We pledged to support her to the end,” said Representative Charles B. Rangel, a New York Democrat [...]

Of course, on the last day of Presidential Primary Season, things are so close between Obama and Clinton that different new organizations have differing opinions about whether Obama has clinched the nomination or not.  And on top of that, the AP reported this morning tha Clinton will concede tonight, and of course her campaign denies [...]

No, I’m not talking about a television series, nor an idea for a Super-bowl commercial. I’m talking about Democrats.
Part of me is happy to see that party tearing itself apart, and not for idealogical reasons, but just your basic greedy, power-starved selfish evilness.
On the other hand, it’s painful to watch.
Still unhappy with the current [...]

In Friday’s Wall Street Journal, Kimberly Strassel takes a careful look at the events around the Obama campaign and provides a keen analysis of his comments,  actions, and the attempts by his campaign and supporters to shore up his mistakes.
It’s apparent that BO is in need of help along the way.  But does he want [...]

Ah, it’s back to one of my favorite pastimes…blogging for the Conservative Reader.  Since my last installment, several interesting things have happened:

For whatever reason, Senator Clinton refuses to concede the nomination.  Either she and Bill cannot conceive of the fact that reasonable people would not choose them to be their standard-bearer, or somehow, some way, [...]
