wouldn't Kerry's shot on getting the SoS post rest on HRC's stepping away from that post ... something she has hinted at continuing in?

I think, the only way HRC steps down from the SoS post is if President Obama nominates her for a SCOTUS seat ... and that will, most likely happen, after the election ... after January, 2013. And would happen whether Kerry AND Warren are in the Senate, or not.
