If the Republicans delay enough, perhaps President Clinton can appoint Obama.

She's gone on record saying she'd do as much, I believe.

That seems unlikely. Presidential candidates don't generally bind themselves in such a way.

A little bit of digging, and yeah, it's not quite as firm a commitment as some have been saying abouts the web. She just said she thinks he'd do a fine job in the position, really.

Whether he'd take the nomination or not would be another thing entirely, too.

Or he could nominate her now. She wouldn't agree to it, but the looks on a few faces would be worth paying to see.

On both sides of the political aisle!
