Not bad but I'd put Rev. Wright in as Secretary of State. The rest of the world hates us, why not have a Secretary of State who feels the same way.

I'm not sure. I heard Kerry is being considered for Sec'y of State. He'd be a good choice. As far as Treasury goes, it will be a safe and responsible pick that Wall Street is okay with -- maybe someone like Larry Sumners or Paul Volcker. I wonder if he'll offer Health & Human Services to Hillary, but I'm not sure she'd want it. Sec'y of Defense is a curious one -- Colin Powell would be an obvious choice or perhaps Wesley Clark. But, really, I have no idea who he's going to choose, especially since change was his mantra. I think he'll bring in a number of well known but new faces.

He definitely will for the comfortability factor.

Interior: Al Gore.
Vet Affairs: John McCain
slightly OT: First supreme court nominee: Hillary Clinton


I will have to think about this some more.

If Bill Ayers becomes the secretary of ANYTHING, I'm moving to Ireland and watching the revolution from afar. ;)

Re: Predict the main cabinet positions
 

Good guesses all.

I'd lean with Ayers as the Homeland Security and Father Phleger as the Education. Just as hunch.

No he's saving the Israeli Ambassadorship for Rev. Wright.

I don't see Hillary being asked to be a member of Obama's administration. Supposedly, there is alot of bad blood between the 2 camps.

Obama is very smart. I think his picks will be "safer picks". Either unknowns, or left center people. He knows if he was to pick radicals he would have alot of people who voted for him turn fairly quickly. And adding a terrorist like Ayers to his cabinet would have some unimaginable consequences for the democratic party.
