My father-in-law posted on facebook today that he hope Obama can now start moving toward the middle. I'm suddenly looking forward to the holiday season even less than I already was.
Can't you ever get your mind out of the hellmouth?

It's almost unheard of for someone to stay Secretary of State for more than 4 years. I think it must be nearly as exhausting as being the President.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
word on the street in my office is that John Kerry is going to be the next Secretary of State, and Brown can run in that special election.
I've heard that he wants it (who knows) but might not get it for just this reason.

If you are looking to Mitt Romney to save your country, it's already dead. Like K-B toys.

You know who would be awesome in the job? A career diplomat who has put in years of service and earned the job.

Tom's being all LOGICAL. Cabinet positions are like Broadway leading roles, sure every so often one of them can go to someone who has put in the years and no one knows, but most of the time they go to NAMES AND FACES and 80s/90s has beens.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
That's just crazy, Tom.
There is also a possibility he could run for governor in two years.
That was my immediate reaction, because it would never occur to me to put Kerry in at State. But, you know, not the president.

So, Debbie Gibson for Secretary of State?

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Jon Huntsman!
Kidding, kidding! Really. Mostly.
There is part of me that would find it mildly hilarious for Kerry to become SoS and Brown to run for his seat. That would mean Brown had to do three elections in two years! Kerry's up again in 2014, right? So if he won, Brown would be back before the people almost immediately. He'd be having elections more often than a House member!
