Actually, this particular story has entertainment value. First of all, the thought of Elizabeth Warren running for the Democrats gives me the giggles. She's as much of a has been as Hillary.
Second, if I remember right, there were rumors that Obama wasn't going to leave when his term was up and that he or some people on his behalf were planning, at least a year before, to get him a third term.
Rumors and a lot of wishful thinking.
