Clinton to accept Secretary of State position

Hillary Clinton will accept the cabinet post of Secretary of State, according to a report from The Guardian, a newspaper in England.

Clinton will be the second woman in a row to fill the post, after Condoleezza Rice. She was Obama's strongest challenger for the Democratic nomination, but since she lost, she has endorsed and campaigned for Obama throughout the general election campaign.

One of the biggest snags in the negotiations was expected to be former president Bill Clinton's associations with The Clinton Global Initiative, a charity run by Clinton that raises and donates money throughout the world.  According to reports from The Washington Post, the Obama transition team was vetting through Bill's past associations throughout the day.
