Hillary Clinton is said to be frustrated with her lack of authority as secretary of state and resentful of the glacial pace of the White House vetting process.
President Obama's picks fly in even if they didn't pay their taxes. But her picks take forever," noted one Democrat.
"Plus, she has no real clout over Holbrooke or Mitchell.
Richard Holbrooke is Obama's "special representative" for Afghanistan and Pakistan.
George Mitchell is "special envoy" to the Middle East. Clinton is said to be considering quitting to retake her old US Senate seat now held by Kristin Gillibrand-- or running for governor, as one rumor has it.
"Her argument will be that Gillibrand is in danger of losing the seat to the Republicans," said a source.

When superegos collide.
That leaves two other options, battle (incumbent) Paterson, plus the (leading in the polls) Cuomo for the DemocRAT PRIMARY for governor in 2010, PLUS then battle Gulianni in the general election. ...All in all, quite a long shot...
OR, another option is for Chuckie to have a Clintonista style 'accident', or whip him in the 2010 Senate primary race. I wonder what 'dirt' she has on him? 
I'm sure her favorite wet-dream however, would be to somehow 'nudge' out the Messiah before November 2012.
Like Palin,that would be quitting. s/
If Hillary didn’t see this coming, she’s too stupid for office.
OR, she can always carpet-bag her way to yet another state, picking the surest win she can find in any “blue” state which will fall for the delusion that her national prominence will mean more power and glory for that state, it’s socialist programs etc.
She could easily be elected Gov. or US Senator from any number of “blue” states in 2010, depending upon what positions are open, vulnerable, or by some quirk held by a RINO. I haven’t surveyed the possibilities yet, but (hate to say it) she ought to forget about NY and plop her big bottom into another lib cesspool....
I read somewhere that Obama meets regularly with his czars but has only had one cabinet meeting. I don’t know if that’s true, but I do suspect that the czars are more important to him than the cabinet members.
I doubt that he spends much time in the same room with Hillary. She probably knew going into this that it wouldn’t be easy. What she didn’t suspect was that she would have nothing of substance to do, and limited authority. I’m sure she wants out, but she also wants a soft place to land.
You might be right, sir.
The Van Jones story isn't about another radical federal employee or even about President Obama's addiction to executive authority (he has appointed over 30 czars with whom he meets regularly, but he has held just one cabinet meeting since his inauguration).
“and I bet she’s really ticked”.
And she isn’t the only one Ozero has pissed on.
I have a feeling the folks over at Langley who work for the C.I.A. may be working over time to find anything in Ozero’s past that will destroy him.
Then there is Jesse Jackson and the other race baiters who have lost prestige do to Ozero.
Eventually someone will throw this marxist punk under the bus.
Literally I’m hoping figuratively at the very least.
“...Hillary Clinton is said to be frustrated with her lack of authority as secretary of state...”
I have to hand it to 0bama. He neutered Bill and isolated Hillary.
His only moves I support.
What?
The Hildabeast taking on chuckie schumer?
Man that would be fun watching these two pieces of garbage going after each other with long knives.
“If Hillary didn’t see this coming, she’s too stupid for office.”
Since when has that ever stopped a liberal from doing anything?:)
And Voter is in the HAPPY CAMPER SECTION. . . . .
she resigned her senate seat. u mean she can take it back?
Yea,the smartest woman in the world! HA!
She should challenge 0 in ‘12. Let’s encourage that. Heh heh.
If Reid gets defeated next year (let’s hope!) Hillary will really be regretting that she left the Senate because she could have run for majority leader. She’d have had far more power there than she would as SOS. Maybe she should challenge Sen Gillibrand for renomination. How wild would that be?!
Hillery you must realize that you are just one of obumma’s Tokens.

There's an opening in Massachusetts...but of course, the last surviving Kennedy Brotha won't allow that....
