Could First Lady Michelle Obama go the route of Hillary Clinton?
It’s only hypothetical this point, but a survey done by Public Policy Polling gives Mrs. Obama the lead over Sen. Mark Kirk 51 to 40 percent, should she choose to challenge Kirk in 2016 for an Illinois senate seat. From PPP.
If Michelle Obama decided she wanted to follow the Hillary Clinton route once her husband leaves office in 2016 and go to the Senate, she'd have the upper hand on Mark Kirk. She leads him 51/40 in a hypothetical head to head. Kirk's approval numbers are ok with 34% of voters approving of him to 19% who disapprove. But those numbers are no match for the first lady, who's seen positively by 60% of voters to 33% with a negative one.

Surely you jest.
God help us all. She is every bit the statist socialist her husband is. She might even be worse since she has an unhealthy obsession with the food we eat.
Good chance she will go to jail.
You can tell from the press coverage of Michele, that they are getting ready to have her run for something.
I believe the Chicago machine will be running her as the first female president, at some point.
Actually, she is at root an anti colonial tribalist negro who longs for the African society prtrayed in Coming to America
The subhuman grifter, affirmative-action, equal-opportunity opportunist, America-hating, racist mooch-elle need to be placed in prison. The only thing she should run for is when the bloodhounds are chasing her after she escapes.
Maybe Obama will give Durbin a cabinet position to free up his Senate seat for Michelle, so she can run for President in 2016.
Someone needs to remind those geniuses at PPP that the Obamas are retiring to Hawaii, not Illinois.
Yeppers. That is how they will extend themselves into a third term.
Perhaps if she were to be elected it might make her proud of at least IL if not her entire country, and that would be a good thing.
Kirk is just keeping the seat warm for her. He will be kept on life support in the mean time.
WORK! She never intends to ever work again but to live in luxury on our dime in Hawaii.
Welcome to Argentina!
NO! NO! NO! Absolutely NOT. No more OBAmas.
I tend to doubt this will happen. Hussein’s ego is just too big to let his “woman” get into the limelight like that. Michelle has been fairly low profile and has stuck to fairly non-political tasks, unlike Hillary.
Unfortunately... if she pushes for it... she’ll get it.
