Obama's "Team of Rivals": A Good Idea?
Submitted by mrissues on December 1, 2008 - 2:17pm
Barack Obama has introduced his national security team on Monday. Former Democratic rival Hillary Clinton will be the President-Elect's choice for Secretary of State, while Republican Defense Secretary Robert Gates will be keeping his current post.
Rounding out his Monday announcements, Obama named retired Marine Gen. Jim Jones as his national security adviser, Eric Holder as attorney general, Arizona Gov. Janet Napolitano as homeland security secretary and Susan Rice as ambassador to the United Nations.
Do you think this "team of rivals" concept will function as hoped? If not, how would you construct a Cabinet?
