ALERT: This News Means We May Be Facing A Senator Michelle Obama It has been rumored for quite some time now that Michelle Obama may be ramping up to run for Dianne Feinsteins seat in the Senate. It is not secret that Feinstein was rumored to be retiring after 2015. Some real estate brokers in California raised suspicions after they announced that the Obamas had a $4.35 million dollar home in escrow. Although rumors temporarily resided when Feinstein announced she was sticking around, they quickly circulated once again when Barbara Boxer announced that she would not seek office again in 2016. Regardless of whether Michelle moves on to run for Senator when the Obamas are out of the office in 2016, it looks like a move to California is on the horizon. The Wall Street Journal also confirmed that handlers for the Obamas are currently scouting properties in Palm Springs. What do you think of the rumors? Will Michelle run for Senator?
