Working his ass off and with good results for his trouble.

I don't think Susan Rice would have been as effective. Things work out for the best sometimes even if it doesn't look like it at first.

If Hillary wasn't too tired to do the talk shows and ask Rice to do that, Kerry might not be SoS. Interesting food for thoughts.
