 == writing style == 

 Several parts of this article are written in a stilted style. 
 ""how women have enlarged their scope of political issues,""  Huh? 
 She filled a ""pre-existing vacant post""?    
 I think the style issues derive from the dogged effort reflected in the bulk of the piece to anticipate and counter potential criticism, which is, of course, inappropriate for Wiki. The extensive discussions of her posts at State are the primary examples of this problem.   
 Also, how can she have served ""two years"" in her first post at State if she joined in 2002 and left in 2003?  Is it more like 15 months?  Just curious. 
 It warrants noting that her first job was in the federal government and coincided with the GHW Bush administration, as I read the dates.   Her next government job was in the GW Bush administration.  These were political appointee positions, weren't they?  
 The Iran Syria section approaches incomprehensible. 
 I don't think that Churchill's wiki entry has that many public appearances and interviews listed.  Way out of proportion to her [lack of] gravitas.
