Is Obama really this smart!

After a huge and historic victory, what better way to go about the hard work of selecting a Cabinet and a White House staff in relative peace and quiet then to have Hillary Clinton as a decoy. Whether she accepts SOS or not, the usual Clinton psycho drama, Bills' problems, Hillary being decided vs. undecided, and the press complicity in it, have taken all the air out of talking about the economy, economic advisers, Treasurer Secretaries, etc. Obama has gone about picking a White House Council, other members of Sr. staff, apparently an Attorney General and all the focus is still on Hillary. If there is a better cover for getting real work done, I haven't seen it in politics. Obama really is the smartest guy in the room.
