1. Sounds good to me - wish I could go with him. nt

[polichick]

2. Sure hope so...

The family deserves to spend some quality time together in the sunshine!

[DURHAM D]

5. Sure - Like the time he missed first two months of an Illinois legislature session?

His family needed some sun.

6. It's too bad you Hillary supporters are so bitter...

I'd be happy for the Clintons if they managed some time off too.

[DURHAM D]

7. But two months? They don't meet year round even. n/t

[polichick]

8. The op mentioned 4-5 days. nt

10. Am I confused or are you confused?

Obama missed the first two months of the Illinois State Legislature one year because he was vacationing in Hawaii. I forget which year.

11. That's what you keep talking about, but...

This thread was about the Obama family possibly getting a break from the campaign trail this month. If you weren't so obsessed about saying something negative, you might have noticed that.

3. I wonder if those dates coincide with his kids' Feb school vacation? n/t

4. maybe after Wisconsin, but WI will be the next big battleground between he and HRC

and besides I think he has HA in the bag due to it being his birth state.

9. I think he'll do that when Hillary drops out.

Wisconsin is the same day.
