She’s still the junior senator of New York. Doesn’t have enough seniority to head committees with power.
Also the NY Governor Patterson is a Hillary supporter and gets to appoint the new senator to finish out her term.
I think Obama will be seen as a stronger leader with Hillary as his SoS.

I guess we’ll find out next week if Hillary is the next Sec of State and, I may be dead wrong, but I still don’t see any advantage for her.

Obama needs her in the Senate pushing for her signature issues — health care, jobs, and children’s rights. The SoS gig takes her out of that realm.

No, I don’t think so. Hillary just had to “tough it up” during the campaign so people wouldn’t think she was a weak girl, and Obama tried to be the diplomatic “Anti-Bush”.
They’re both intelligent people who want to end the wars.

it seems like, if Hillary becomes the Sec. State, then there will be some serious personality and agenda conflict between her and Obama

Amen, brother, amen.

Let her lead the push for universal and hopefully single-payer healthcare through the senate and congress. That will be her legacy, 15 years later than should be but a very, very good line on her CV.
