Rahm Emanuel to Quit the White House: Does Hillary Follow?

As reported by the Telegraph, Rahm Emanuel will be leaving the White House later this year. Although the article mentions "burn out" and concerns over "losing touch with his young family", it goes on to say:

"It is well known in Washington that arguments have developed between pragmatic Mr Emanuel, a veteran in Congress where he was known for driving through compromises, and the idealistic inner circle who followed Mr Obama to the White House."

This would undoubtedly make Hillary's departure from the administration that much more inconvenient for Obama, and we are now better able to understand the balloon that was floated in the Sally Quinn column in the Washington Post, suggesting that she will replace Biden as vice president (http://jgcaesarea.blogspot.com/2010/06/hillary-clinton-as-obamas-vice.html).

After being demeaned for a year and a half, Hillary now has Obama by the short hairs.
