Hillary Clinton: Best Secretary of State Since Baker?

Ok, maybe the title is a little bit of hyperbole 7 months into the new administration, but she has thus far shown that maybe we were wrong to write off "smart power." She seems to have mastered the balance, both rhetorically and in action, between tough talk and diplomacy. This clip is the highlight:



Too bad she wasn't running foreign policy instead of health care during her husband's administration.

Secretary Clinton Impresses

Secretary Hillary Clinton's first major address has helped restore some faith in Obama administration foreign policy. It was strongly pro-American while staying realistic; goals-oriented while still painting a broad picture of how the Clinton State department sees the world. All in all, a wonderful departure from the Obama apology tour, especially where she stands up to the idea that America is an imperialist power and that we are entering a post-America world. Now, if only her and Secretary Gates could run the foreign policy by themselves...
