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.
?Michelle Obama will run for the United States Senate in 2016 and she will be thereby mimicking, if that?s not the right word [then] duplicating the career of Hillary Clinton,? McLaughlin said.
Should Barack Obama win re-election in 2012, Michelle Obama would indeed be following in Clinton?s footstep, running immediately after her husband?s term is up as president.
