Is Obama Leaning To a Republican Candidate?

According to CNN, Obama is getting advice from former national security adviser for the Bush Administration, Mr. Brent Scrowcroft. Shocking? Not anymore after knowing that Obama started talking to him before he was selected for president elect. When asked if he shall choose to select republicans in his cabinet, Obama commented, that he would at least choose one. May it be perhaps, that he already has a name to this Republican and it starts with a "B" and ends with a "t"? It would make sense, considering that Obama's aide quoted that the president-elect "respects and admires Gen. Scowcroft's bipartisan, pragmatic approach to foreign policy". He also opposed the war in Iraq. But will this seal the deal to remain in office?
