Michelle Obama for Senate in 2016?
TheDC ^ | January 14, 2012 | Jeff Poor

In November 2016, Illinois voters will go to the polls to decide who they want to occupy the U.S. Senate seat currently held by Republican Sen. Mark Kirk. And although it is a long way off, could one of the names on the ticket be first lady Michelle Obama?

At the end of this weekend’s broadcast of “The McLaughlin Group,” show host John McLaughlin made that bold prediction, saying a Michelle Obama run for the seat her husband won in 2004 would happen.

And her qualifications are? Being FLOTUS? I don’t think so. Of course I’m not an Illinois voter. Qualified or not, they’d probably love her.

What is this a replay of the Clintons? What makes thee people think they are qualified for these positions? They should all be in jail.

Not for nuthin' but Hillary was even less qualified when she became the NY Senator. At least Chewbacca has the extra 10 affirmative action points to get her in.

If this is true and she's considering it, she'll be a lock in Illinois.

I have a feeling Shelly and Hussein are going to be fleeing the country to some faraway sanctuary location owned by Soros long before 2016.

You’re right. She’s got it in the bag. Some people just shouldn’t be allowed to vote. THEY are not qualified to do that.

What a treat. Combiner Socialist buttboy Mark Kirk vs. Angela Davis’s fatter and angrier twin sister.

B.S. on that Senate thing. If her old man O-Hole wins in November, which very unfortunatly I think is going to happen, Moochie is going to run for Prez in 2016. The NEW BLACK DYNASTY. Mmmmmmm, Mmmmmm,Mmmmm. We WHITEYS are going to be punished big time. Hang on to your hats, and keep buying lots of those “sporting goods”.
