for Barack. Not a bad idea or thought actually. I think she could handle pretty much anything that was thrown at her. She has plenty of self-confidence articulate, intelligent and I think could defend herself and the President very well. I don't know what qualifications go into picking a press secretary.

1. I've thought of that too, except I want Rachel and KO to be watchdogs of Congress
and the executive still.

4. You can bet her and Keith will be good watchdogs. Do you know what
qualifications are needed for press secretary, seems she would have the background and education nailed down.

9. Yeah she would do much more good in the MSM where good people like her are few and far in between.
I'm pretty sure Obama can find more good candidates for press secretary in Washington because he's pretty damn good about finding good but undervalued talent.

3. Rachel rules...
She is uber smart. I'm convinced she can do anything she sets her mind to doing.

6. I can't think of anyone better!
She'd be an asset to Obama's administration in any capacity.
KO as press secretary?

11. You know, I think she would. Good suggestion.
I think she values her independence, but she would be great.
