39. Because he's cheerleading someone who has said she is NOT interested, that's why.

I'll give you insight on why I think it should be Veronica Biggins if you want. She's smart, been around, was part of the Clinton White House, knows the people and the ropes, and is a fabulous wit. At 74, she had just as much energy as she did 20 years ago (or, at least, she seems that way), and Frank is great support, too, has no problem taking a back seat when the occasion calls for it. Veronica does shine when the limelight is on her.

She's not in the slightest bit interested, either, but why shouldn't I promote her? Well, for one thing, BECAUSE SHE IS NOT IN THE SLIGHTEST BIT INTERESTED. As far as I'm concerned, and as far as Veronica is concerned, that should be the end of it. I don't see why Michelle Obama should be pestered any further on the subject if she doesn't want to be. It isn't fair to her, to Joe Biden, or to any of the women Biden IS still seriously considering.
