I am no longer an Obama supporter. Not because of this but of so many other things. hope? change? The change he has brought isn't what I was expecting.

Really, exactly what would you expect from a "zero-experience" president??

I had been hoping he would prove himself worthy, only he proved he's worthy alright!....worthy of being ridden out of town, hell...out of the COUNTRY on a rail!!!

He make Ford, Carter and Bush, Jr. all look like an Einstein by comparison.

I am a legend in my own mind!

LOL Nebe, I'll believe it when I see you posting " it's all Obamas fault" a few times a day for at least the next 6 years."

You don't think some groups are just itching to start naming public buildings after the first black US President?

She does have an impressive resume. One challenge I think with issues like this is that the best candidates might not have a perfect past, but they do have the right experience. You see it all the time in business. How many CEO's have run failing companies at one time or another?

I just felt the need to quote this for posterity.... No opportunity to edit or delete.... Months after being forced out of her job she is on a list of best candidates????? Go back and get a better list! How quickly we forget that the contract to set up the Obamacare website was "awarded" to a friend of the first lady...... I guess she must have been on the list of best candidates too, even though she had never produced anything close to what was required.....

I think the nomination is based on her full experience and not just a recent failure, though I'm sure the issues at the MBTA will be a focus of her vetting by the Commerce Committee. She certainly has the experience to get consideration.
