Where does Hillary go from here?
I don’t see Barry Obama giving her a meaningful post in his administration.
She can stay in the Senate. I expect, barring some oddity of politics, that she can be elected from New York State as long as she chooses to run. But that is not an administrative position.
Hillary wants to run something.
So, I’m going to suggest she consider running for governor of New York.
The current governor lucked out when Elliot “$3,000 whores” Spitzer was forced to abdicate, er… resign. Patterson has blemishes in his past and is not a statewide personality.
He is a product of the Adam Clayton Powell / Harlem machine. His purpose on the original ticket was to deliver the black votes that the Powell machine claims to be able to produce.
You don’t need Harlem to be governor.
Hillary Clinton would be an almost unbeatable candidate for governor. Patterson, umm…. not so much.
