Being a New York woman in the Obama administration seems like a dangerous thing to be these days.
First, Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor broke her ankle in a fall enroute to Washington from New York.
Now, former New York Sen. Hillary Clinton, who’s already safely traveled thousands of miles around the world as President Obama’s secretary of State, tripped and fell near the White House Wednesday, breaking her right elbow.
The 61-year-old former first lady was enroute to a meeting there and was treated and released from George Washington University Hospital.
According to a brief midnight announcement from an aide, Clinton will undergo surgery next week to repair the damage. So much for handshaking for a while. Sotomayor is making her way around Capitol Hill Senate interviews on crutches.

The relationship of “good friends agree to disagree” took a tough test Wednesday afternoon as U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, with Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman standing at her side, told reporters, “We want to see a stop to the settlements.”Several hours after the meeting, she was rushed to the hospital for a fractured elbow which she suffered in a fall while on her way to the White House. She will undergo surgery next week and is expected to resume full duties soon
