This has been rumored since Kirk was elected. I think it’s just pure speculation with no foundation.
I would crawl over hot coals to reelect that little RINO turd if Michelle were the rat nominee, but I doubt she’ll run.
Which Democrats will run for the U.S. Senate, in IL, in 2016? I think AG Lisa Madigan will run. Barack Obama and Paul Simon were state senators before they were U.S. senators. Since she’s been a state senator and attorney general, that experience would help her campaign.
I don’t see that happening at all. Michelle has never been that interested in politics as far as I can tell. I think she’s going to stay in DC where her daughters will go to college while Barack will return to Hawaii after the divorce is finalized.
