A New York man has been keeping his license plates inside his car. He says that's the only way to preserve them.

Jonathan Lifschutz has vanity plates with five letters that read: OBAMA. Lifschutz is a former donor to Hillary Clinton.

But after Barack Obama started winning Democratic primaries, Lifschutz went to the Department of Motor Vehicles and got the plates.

He says the only trouble is that people keep trying to steal them.

President-elect Obama made public Monday what has long been expected: He will nominate Sen. Hillary Clinton to be his secretary of state.

Clinton will be part of a new national security team that includes other familiar faces. Robert Gates, the current secretary of defense, would stay at the Pentagon.

For national security adviser, Obama has chosen retired Marine Gen. James Jones, a former NATO commander and commandant of the Marine Corps.

President-elect Barack Obama is set to unveil his national security team Monday. It's expected that former rival Hillary Clinton will be named secretary of state and Robert Gates will stay on as defense secretary.

In any event…

The will-she-or-won’t-she questions surrounding Hillary Clinton and the State Department took yet another turn this morning.

Seems like Bill Clinton is willing to make some concessions to help his wife land the job:
