- -Editorial: Was Clinton a Good Secretary of State? (Politico.com)
"Here’s Aaron David Miller, who negotiated Middle East peace for five presidents and is now a scholar at the Wilson Center, making the case for cautious Clinton: 'Hillary was risk-averse; Kerry isn’t. He’s risk-ready.' Of course, Miller argues, 2016 politics 'explains partly why she didn’t own a single issue of consequence.' The other reason is President Obama himself, 'the most controlling foreign policy president since Nixon.' Miller’s bottom line: 'She was a fine secstate but not consequential.' ”
"Pletka’s broader view of Clinton’s record is a harsher version of what I hear from many Democrats: 'the Washington consensus,' Pletka says, 'is that she was enormously ineffective … [though] no one was quite sure whether she was ineffective because she wanted to avoid controversy or because she wasn’t trusted by the president to do anything.' "

- Chelsea Clinton's Role as Daughter (MSNBC News)
"Many interviews with Ms. [Chelsea] Clinton’s friends followed the same pattern: requests not to be identified in the article, followed by warm descriptions of Ms. Clinton, then moments of anxiety that she would find out about the praise. Still, in more than a dozen interviews, a consensus portrait emerged, that of a sincere, serious woman who, consciously or not, has picked up a few politicianlike habits." 07-07
