(115,613 posts)The result would be unnecessary controversy and litigation, which we really don't need right now. And it's almost obscene to ask Obama to sacrifice himself again. He deserves to have a life after eight years of what must be the worst job on earth - and the same goes for Michelle. It will not happen. Nor will Cuomo, Oprah, or any of the other ridiculous suggestions that have been thrown around here, all of which are in effect outright insults to the highly qualified women who are already on his short list.
