WE'VE GOT ANOTHER "TWO FOR ONE" SALE

The comparisons between them are as obvious as they are inevitable. They are both well educated, fairly well spoken, and, well....they are both back stabbing bitches, politically speaking, in no small measure due to their Ivy league law degrees. They both have married somewhat beneath themselves, to smart, but weak willed men with lots of talent, but unmercilessly prone to their weaknesses (sex for Clinton, drugs for Obama).

But most of all, they both harbor the opinion that they should be, they could be, they would be in the limelight rather than their spouses, were they to be in possession of the one unique tool necessary to gain entrance into the White House itself....a penis.

Yes, I am speaking of the real odd couple, Hillary Clinton and Michelle Obama.

The role of top political advisor by way of marriage is relatively new historically, of course. Most first ladies were willing to serve their husbands in a domestic and subservient fashion. Quotes from Mrs. Wilson and Kennedy bares this out.....Wilson: “I am naturally the most unambitious of women and life in the White house has no attractions for me.” Kennedy: "I think the major role of the First Lady is to take care of the President so that he can best serve the people. And not to fail her family, her husband, and children.”

However, reports are that while Ike suffered heart attacks and a stroke, his administration could not have functioned at all without the first lady, Mamie Eisenhower towards the end of his terms, up to maintaining communications with foreign heads of states, and answering Ike's mail as well.

Clinton went one farther when he stated early on that Hillary was a full partner, and the electorate is getting a "two for one" sale. Hillary, in a fit of complete stupidity (starting a pattern of behavior for the Clinton administration) misspoke when she exclaimed her unwillingness to "stay home and bake cookies."

Within the first five days of becoming First Lady, Hillary Clinton was named by her husband to head the President's Task Force on Health Care Reform, overseeing research, investigatory trips, financial reports, numerous committees composed of medical and insurance professionals, lawmakers and other government officials, public service leaders, and consumer rights advocates. In this capacity, she became the third First Lady to testify before Congress, appearing to the House committee on health insurance reform in September 1993. When the plan devised was attacked as too complicated or an intention leading to "socialized medicine" the Administration decided not to push for a vote and it never came to a vote in the Senate or House, abandoned in September, 1994. However, it should be pointed out that she did increase national conscientiousness in this area, and in fact, health care did dominate the democratic presidential campaigns.

Having said all of that, let there be no doubt of the bond between Michelle and Barack Obama. Remember, Barack, as a rookie Senator, has literally zero ties or bonds to anyone in Washington except of a banal nature. He is beholding to no one, and, it should be pointed out, that as a black man, he will be less likely to trust anyone in Washington as well. It is true that Washington is the "chocolate city with a marshmallow filling" racially speaking.

And this leads us to Michelle Obama, who will be in Barack's ear on a constant basis, pointing the way for him, leading him wherever she thinks he should go, and grabbing up as much power as she can with both hands. Don't believe me? Ask her about Hillary taking the second spot on the ticket? She will implode, as noted by Kennedy and Bob Novak recently.

We may well see a day when a First lady becomes President as well.

Will it be a Clinton, or an Obama?

Only time will tell.

And that is "The World According to Kimba"
