Obama's nominees to senior posts in his administration after he takes office on Jan. 20 will come before a Senate where his Democrats have stronger control, giving them a better chance of swift approval. In the Nov. 4 election Democrats gained six Senate seats, increasing their majority in the 100-member chamber to 57.
Obama's selection of Clinton would be a bold move that would bring into his coming administration a high-profile former rival who had questioned his level of experience and his foreign policy ideas in the Democratic primary battle earlier this year.
