ValJar: says ‘no chance' Michelle will be Biden's VP
The Wookie demurs
[NY Post] There is "no chance" former First Lady Michelle Obama will be Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden’s running mate, according to a top Obama adviser and friend of the family.

Former Obama White House senior adviser Rodent-Faced Iranian Tool Valerie Jarrett said Tuesday that Obama would not consider being Biden’s vice president in an interview with The Hill, telling the outlet that she simply is not interested in being on the Democratic presidential ticket.

"The reason why I’m being so unequivocal is that there just simply has never been a time when she’s expressed an interest in running for office," Jarrett said.

"She’s not demurring here. She’s not being hard to get. She doesn’t want the job," she continued.

Biden has said on numerous occasions that he would love for the former first lady to be on the ticket with him, though always noting that it would never happen.

As recently as Monday, the Democratic nominee said to CBS Pittsburgh that he’d have her has his running mate "in a heartbeat. She’s brilliant, she knows the way around, she’s a really fine woman. The Obamas are great friends."

Regardless of whether Biden would take her, according to Jarrett, Obama is not interested.

"Of course he would take her. That’s not the question. The question is, is this the way in which she wants to continue her life of service luxury?"

#1 The polling data must look that bad, and perhaps there are factors with Champs habit’s now that can’t be fixed? One can only smile at this and who delivered it.

#4 Join Biden for a historic loss? Or stand aside and hope you can run when Trump will no longer be on the ticket?

#10 This is excellent news if true. Michelle on the ticket would be a game changer. But she and her husband can continue to make millions without any responsibilities if she stays out. Pretty easy decision. And yes Frank, the rat faced bit was hilarious.

#11 $68m from NFLX (beneficiary of Democratic-led FCC rulings)
$60m from Bertelsmann (beneficiary of Iran deal)

= Nice return on their investment in Zero and Rodent-Face

#12 I've been thinking it may be Stacy Abrahms. No National experience but Dem's don't care, look at Obama. Abrahms is so divisive and hateful of anything Trump and the Republicans the Bernie Bros Progressives will love her.
