Prospect of Hillary “roils Obamaland”

While much of the establishment applauds the idea of Hillary Clinton as Secretary of State, writes Ben Smith at Politico,

[i]t’s not playing quite as well … in some precincts of Obamaland. From his supporters on the progressive wing of the Democratic Party, to campaign aides of the soon-to-be commander-in-chief, there’s a sense of ambivalence about giving a top political plum to a woman they spent 18 months hammering as the compromised standard-bearer of an era that deserves to be forgotten.

I don’t think Obama is all that they wanted, there’s more. Maybe something like “ruthlessly crushing (fist slamming into open palm) the reactionary bourgeois class!”—like the Clintons.
