The current secretary of state, Hillary Clinton, has made clear that she will serve only one term, and Politico describes Kerry’s desire to finish his career as the country’s top diplomat as “one of Washington’s badly kept secrets.”
If Kerry becomes Secretary of State, Madeleine Albright will no longer carry the title of worst Secretary of State in my memory.
What a dandified popinjay that man is. Only a fool would choose him to represent our country to the world. Putin is surely imagining the pretzels he'll fold Kerry into to cash in that promise of flexibility.
UPDATE: Good. God: Only Democrats could believe that a testimonial by John Kerry about President Obama's foreign policy prowess is a good thing. Only the endorsement by Hugo Chavez is more damning.
At least Chavez isn't dandified.
