Meg For Secretary of State!

Rumors keep floating about what outgoing eBay CEO Meg Whitman will do next. But it's true that she's a long-time pal and huge fan of Republican Presidential Candidate Mitt Romney. Hard to imagine she left her beloved eBay to bet on a future in a Mitt Administration -- but should Romney win, the gossipers are saying there may be a role for Whitman.

Maybe secretary of state. If she could keep all those splintered, self-interested eBay sellers in line for a decade, sorting out the Sunnis vs. Shiites might be a piece of cake for her.
