Of course Hillary should meet with Lugar and others. Obama wants his Administration to hit the ground running. Party Jan 20 start work early Wednesday morning Jan 21.

This meeting would make sense politically. Lugar is a very smart guy, who is one of the very few Republicans. That can actually put two brain cells together without hurting himself in the process. Hillary and Lugar have a lot of issues to solve internationally. The obvious problems are Iraq, Afganistan, India, Pakistan, GITMO, and Iran. "Brainless Bush" and his Secretary of State "Robot Rice" sure scew-up big time. That is fact America!

Why is Clinton still making headlines? There is only one paragraph to this story and I'm sure everyone is meeting everyone so why should anyone be interested in what Clinton is doing?

This story comes across like a boring piece out of someone's appointment book.
