I think all Heck is going to reign loose on Obama after inauguration. He will be tested for sure. Too many Clinton holdovers. I'm sure there are plenty of qualified non Clinton people out there. We had 12 years of Bush's and 8 years of Clintons. We need some new blood, not just at the top of 3 branches but all over. Change shouldn't mean change the current to the past, but rather Change with new talent and new ideas.

I am sure that Bill Clinton would have no problem in being open about his donations to his charity to insure that Hillary gets the Sec of State job. He has nothing to hide. I knew all along that he would.

And it does seem to me that Obama is becoming or trying to become Bill Clinton 2. I guess he's using the same people as Bill because Bill had a great run as pres. But Obama does need to bring in some reps like he said he was going to to try to be bipartisan.

I knew that al Qaeda would eventually put out a derogatory remark towards Obama. I didn't think it'd be that racially charged though! But hey...what do you expect...they are terrorists who hate us. Can't wait to hear from Peter Bergen and see what he has to say on this.

And can I say that I was SO glad to see other reports on 360 last night besides politics! Honestly though I gotta say hour two was so much better than hour one because it had the arson case, the case of the 8 yr old and the heroes thing. I wish that you all would reconsider and do these stories all in hour one!

I smell fear coming from the AL QUADA camp. Seems to me that the new elect president Barack Obama has got Al Quata on the defensive already. Al Quata fear Obama because they know they are dealing with a leader with intelligence as oppose to a leader with blind folds on.

Canadians for Obama:)

Clinton was known to want the best and brightest in his administration and Obama wants the same – so it doesn't surprise me that some of Obama's selections come from the Clinton administration. Most of these people were junior staffers then and learning the ropes. Now they get to step up and use the intelligence and experience they gained under Clinton and other jobs to help Obama in his administration. If we dismiss these people as not being representative of change then we are saying that people can't change – that would include us.

Look, Obama didn't lose the election by hand picking the WRONG people.
So what if some of his choices are from the Clinton years, if memory serves correct, those were some pretty good years and it has become evident the support staff from then has been seasoned and are plenty ready to cultivate the "Change" we so desperately need.

I think during a time of war Obama cant afford to hire anyone who doesnt have experience. The important thing is that he is looking at both sides so there will be a balance.

The new Presidental elect has something up his sleeve already for the alqeda terrorists.Obama 's interesting choices have directed form the Clinton adminstration which is based on his sucessful ecomomy surplus .This is his efectivce waty to get out from under the global financial crisis. Hillary would be a great assest to the team .

Thanks foir the buzz

There's nothing wrong with Obama choosing people from the Clinton Administration if they're smart people or people who give him a different point of view. Besides, there's no point clinging to the concept of "change" if it only brings in incompetence.

Then again he could have just been watching re-runs of "The West Wing."

Obama is right to hire people who can perform at the top of their game.
Newsflash : America is in crisis. These are serious times for our country
and the world. The change will be the way Obama governs as well
as the policies of his administration. He has already changed the
way a president will communicate with the American public. His
youtube channel is the most subscribed. Sometimes I think tv
news just does not get it. The world has changed and the American
public wants Obama to succeed.
