(I don't know about her... but the rest of us sure as hell do)
Miss Kantor writes in her new book The Obamas that the stalemate in Washington over healthcare reforms, among other initiatives, led the Obamas to muse that losing the 2012 bid for re-election might not be so bad.
They began to feel that life in the White House was something to be endured rather than savored.
On TV this week, Mrs Obama — who was once pilloried for stating that her husband’s successful presidential campaign meant that ‘for the first time in my adult life I am proud of my country’ — insisted her time in the White House had made her ‘start feeling euphoric and proud and, you know, proud of yourself and proud of your time’.
When it was suggested that some people were disappointed in the Obama presidency, she responded that they ‘may be confused about how much has been accomplished’.
Confused??? Accomplished??? If she means destroying the economy her husband gets an A+.
The only positive coming out of his presidency was the death of Bin Laden. Which was simply a case of being in the right place at the right time.
Mrs Obama hints of feeling victimised and misunderstood will lead many to conclude she can’t get out of the White House fast enough.
Fast enough is not fast enough.
Some might remark that ambitious people should be careful what they wish for.
To which Michelle could be forgiven for responding that she didn’t want to be in the White House in the first place: it was all Barack’s idea.
As Shakespeare may have said:
