N.Y. Times: Clinton Accepts Secretary Of State JobNew York Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton has reportedly accepted the position as secretary of state in Barack Obama's administration.
The New York Times is reporting that she will give up her senate seat. The information is attributed to two confidants of the former First Lady.
Last night, Clinton aides said disclosure issues concerning former President Bill Clinton's finances and funding of his foundation have been worked out.
While in Harlem last night to help open a squash center for area kids, the New York senator remained mum on serving in Obama's cabinet.
"Somehow I don't think [my becoming secretary of state] is on a lot of young people's minds," said the former first lady.
The senator's senior advisor said any comments on administration appointments need to be addressed by Obama's transition team.
