Is Michelle Obama Biden’s trump card?
By Steve Grammatico

In April, author and political commentator Michael Walsh predicted that Joe Biden would choose Michelle Obama as his running mate within a month or so:  “[It] would be an unstoppable ticket, and potentially give the Obamas eight more years in the White House.”  Walsh quotes Dick Harpootlian, South Carolina’s former Democratic Party Chair: “If she engages, God help Donald Trump, because she’s tough as nails and enormously popular.”

Mrs. Obama, Walsh wrote, “is the perfect vice presidential candidate, one who will . . . push progressive causes, and check all the social justice boxes” while sparking a massive African American vote, a feat beyond Biden’s wildest dreams.  But it’s mid-July and Biden is still dithering.  Or is he?  In any case, the scenario Walsh lays out remains plausible:

* The party would enthusiastically unite around Mrs. Obama.

* MSM coverage would be universally adoring.

* Former President Barack Obama instantly becomes a valuable asset.

* With the Obamas breaking trail, Michelle and Biden handily defeat Trump
    and Pence on November 3.

* On January 20, Joe Biden is inaugurated.

* On January 21 the Bidens announce the 78-year old president is resigning as   
    “he is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office.”

* Michelle becomes president.

* On January 22 President Obama names her choice for VP.

I can’t say I have ever seen were a vice president made a difference. Mondale chose Geraldine Ferraro  with the idea that that would excite the female vote but it didn’t work out that way

 Barack Obama was not a vote getter for the Democrat party at large. If you recall, he left the Democratic Party in worse shape than when he first took office.

 Barack Obama actually lost votes when he was reelected. I believe he was the first president to win a second term  actually losing votes. Those votes that he lost from 2008 just didn’t go to Romney

Polls consistently showed during his tenure that a whopping 60 to 70% said the country heading in the wrong direction

We had one of the longest periods of sluggish growth since the end of World War II under his tenure

I'd bet a significant number of those voting for McCain actually voted for Palin.

Michelle Obama has a large package  of attributes that can help Biden rise up to the stiffening Trump challenge.
