The topic has been making the rounds for a few days already. Here's the Washington Post from last week: http://voices.washingtonpost.com/the-trail/2008/11/19/hillary_clintons_fix.html
There's multiple precedents for Congressmen taking such a job with an exemption, typically at the previous salary level.
This Hillary story will have shorter legs, and be less impactful, than the "she might steal the nomination with superdelegates!" speculation.
