So far, all I've heard is speculation. (And two of the names on the list have been confirmed, but two of the diverse names). I had a hard time believing it was real, either. But centrists who back down on FISA and other Constitutional issues will need to have their feet kept to the flame, and I'm happy to play that role.Maggie Jochildhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07577090500862823864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3576716365575919550.post-78220104091373175272008-11-19T12:53:00.000-06:002008-11-19T12:53:00.000-06:00If that was the real shortlist for positions...

And hopefully a lot of them will be more progressive or liberal than the bulk of that list.Connecticut Man1https://www.blogger.com/profile/08923884330387123010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3576716365575919550.post-58148538437865152642008-11-18T10:51:00.000-06:002008-11-18T10:51:00.000-06:00I'm going to guess that this list was not compiled...I'm going to guess that this list was not compiled by the Obama camp. Or that at least some of it came from somewhere else.<BR/><BR/>Ralph Nader? That can't be for real.<BR/>John Edwards? After his little scandal?<BR/><BR/>I heard that Al Gore was not interested in cabinet positions, so I would also stick him on the "Doesn't seem official" list.<BR/><BR/>It reads, to me, like a who's who of liberal politics, rather than a real clue about the Obama administration. <BR/><BR/>You're absolutely right, though, there's a small handful of women, and not many people of color. That's no good whether it's just a view of famous democrats OR a shortlist for cabinet positions.kathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18268308908367447768noreply@blogger.com
