President Barack Obama says he wants a Democrat in the White House in 2016 and is pledging to do everything possible to help that nominee succeed.
At the same time, Obama says the public wants that “new car smell” when it comes to the next presidential campaign.
In an interview broadcast Sunday on ABC’s “This Week,” Obama says: “They want to drive something off the lot that doesn't have as much mileage as me.” …

I’m just happy to hear he’s leaving of his own volition after two terms. Given all the megalomania he’s exhibited thus far, that was a question in my mind.
I hope to see the cops and the CPS agents involved get arrested, tried, and convicted in a court of law.
Actually I think what Americans want is a shower which is a completely different thing. It’s not so much about looking for shiny and sexy as it is about swearing off the activities of the night before. That is where I think we are as a nation.
Wonder what Hillary thinks of her boss taking a swipe at her this way?!
That it is.
New car smell? Not so subtle hint that he won’t be endorsing VP Joe?
Shot over Hillary’s bow.
Someone off the radar, someone without “baggage”, someone who can be sold as “hip” to young (first time, low information) voters.
O’Malley?
“Obama says .. “
Be gone, louse!
Someone off the radar, such as Castro from Texas, the former mayor of San Antonio, now HUD secretary?
He’s young and hip and liberal.
I’ve heard that Democrats have a tendency to go for new candidates who burst onto the scene.
We can think of a few from recent history.
Jimmy Carter was unknown to most Americans as he began his quest for the 1976 Democrat nomination.
Same with Dukakis in 1988. He wasn’t a national figure at first.
Bill Clinton was not well known nationally until he ran for president in 1992.
And Obama was relatively unknown nationally when he ran for president against the universally known Hillary in the 2008 primaries.
I’ve heard lots of talk that Hillary just isn’t liberal enough or exciting enough for many Democrats. In spite of polls showing broad support, other candidates could jump into the race and deflate her support.
“New Car Smell”...
He’s campaigning against Hillary already. The 70 year old would not be NEW anything.
No doubt he’ll do all he can to sabotage hillary. They hate one another.
I’m thinking about a recent meeting where Joe undermined zero by asking Republicans how much time they needed to write up an immigration bill. Can’t have that. The former used car salesman is a clunker they’d like to haul off to the political junkyard.
The Obamamobile needs to be recalled... and crushed forever.
Sorry the Hillarymobile, Warrenmobile and the JEBmobile should be recalled before it hits the road.
Show me the Carfax!
Are those two a couple of pathetic looking weasels, or what?
Too right ;)
We don’t know what we want to buy yet Barry, but we do know we will be trading in a clunker.
