Well, there'll be at least one Republican in the cabinet: confirmed. |
|
Kroft: Will there be Republicans in the cabinet? Mr. Obama: Yes. Kroft: More than one? Mr. Obama: You're not getting more out of me. http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2008/11/16/60minutes/main4607893_page4.shtml

12. Cohen was very good in the Clinton administration |
|
My guess is a very moderate Republican, maybe Chuck Hagel or one of the senators from Maine.

Or at least, that is what I inferred from the questions about Lincoln's Team of Rivals.
So we have nothing to worry about!

11. I wouldn't mind seeing more than 1 Republican |

Just pick ones who are competent and moderate to liberal in the relevant area.
