Rumor now has it that our less than impressive first lady, Moochelle Obummer, may now actually be considering a run for the Senate seat now occupied by Illinois Sen. Mark Kirk. Supposedly it wasn't all that long ago that such an idea would have seemed somewhat absurd, but those who are paid to hypothesize about all matters having to do with politics are once again beginning to wonder aloud about whether she might be mulling a run for Kirk's seat in 2016. Nothing surprises me anymore.
It was in a column that appeared in Reuters just this past Thursday that suggested Moochelle would be the only candidate with a large enough profile to unseat the Republican. The column also points to Obummer's recent willingness to debate the merits of her idiotic school lunch program with Republicans, her rather useless trip to China, her ability at fundraising and her even her silly stance on the kidnapped Nigerian school girls as all being signs that her tone has been turning more political.
This is not the first time that old Moochelle has been mentioned as a potential senatorial candidate, but that speculation has always focused beyond 2016. And Moochelle herself has never publicly indicated any interest in seeking political office. But at a time when the Democrats are desperate in the effort to maintain control of the Senate, she could represent the Democrats' best chance to pick up a desperately needed, and winnable, seat. Democrat pressure on her to run might get intense.
But just like a senator named Barry Obummer who decided to run for president in 2008 when many thought he should wait his turn, politics is more often about timing. And with an ego that rivals Barry’s, I wouldn’t be surprised to see her run. And, of course, Moochelle has demonstrated on any number of occasions that she possess as strong a commitment to left wing values as does her socialist husband. That to could will compel her to enter the race, to continue to 'make a difference.
According to Reuters -- "She would quickly become the most recognizable face in the Senate. Her fame and fundraising ability would command deference in a body that normally operates on seniority. Whether the recent elevation of her profile suggests a plan to run is unclear, but she will be well positioned should she jump in." There's also that 2012 Public Polling Policy survey showing Moochelle picking up 51 percent of the vote against Kirk's 40 percent if they were to have run at that time.
But let’s face it, these days nothing surprises me. And we have more than enough people holding public office that prove the point that you don’t need to be particularly bright in order to get yourself elected. And after all, she does possess one of the most important qualities necessary, these days, when running for nearly any office. She’s black, a quality that if possessed by a liberal, makes it completely unnecessary for the candidate to possess any amount of intelligence whatsoever.
So anyway, I have no doubt that should this arrogant bitch decide to run she would most likely win. Because such is the level of intelligence possessed by a majority of the American electorate of today, especially loony leftwing place like Illinois. The survival of our country simply doesn’t matter to most Americans anymore, what’s become far more important is that they continue to be on the receiving end their many taxpayer-funded goodies they now get from the government. It’s all about priorities.
