Hillary Clinton hasn't stepped into the 2016 Democratic presidential primaries yet and there's already buzz growing for the ultimate grrl power ticket: Clinton and first lady Michelle Obama.

"All due respect for President Obama and Vice President Biden, but that would truly be a dream team for America," said former Clinton spokeswoman Karen Finney. "Both women are proven effective leaders who've raise children, so dealing with Congress would be a snap!" added Finney, also a former Democratic Party spokeswoman.

"More than anything else, this reflects the growing awareness that it is time for the glass ceiling of the last old boys club to be firmly shattered," added Democratic strategist Chris Lehane.

It's not just talk. Bumper stickers reading "2016-Hillary Clinton and Michelle Obama," and "Hillary-Michelle 2016 First First Lady Ticket For President" are popping up. Cafe Press said sales of the Hillary-Michelle bumper sticker saw a 60% increase from December to March, with the largest uptick in March.

People will refuse to vote for it, too. It has all the intellectual capacity and balance of the H.W. Bush/Quayle ticket. And New York/Illinois is a huge turnoff. Neither has been a governor. Obama has no resume at all. She may have started the same way Clinton did, but Clinton has been to the Senate and the State Department since then. And the running mate is generally the attack dog in a campaign. I've never seen any sign that Obama has the chops for that.

Fail. Hope they do this. That would be good.

Which one would be President and Vice President? I suppose based on the order of the names Hillary would be President and Michelle would be Vice President. If they're the dream ticket, what's wrong with having Michelle be President and Hillary be Vice President?

Yep. It is very appealing to some Democrats.

Hillary has mucked up everything she has tried to run. She mucked up healthcare, and she totally screwed up the state department.

Have we even seen any indication that Michelle is interested in politics? When Hillary was in the First Lady spot, she made no bones about being involved in decisions and such. I admittedly haven't paid much attention, but all I've seen out of Michelle is the obligatory program focus. She chose "Let's Move!' in the same way that Laura Bush chose "Let's Read!"

Every time I think that political commentation cannot possibly become any more droolingly insipid, someone like Finney or Lehane comes along and proves me wrong ...

Would "win" in a landslide.

They'd be idiots not to run those two if TPTB were agreeable.

Clinton, (both of them) are fully compromised, not sure about Obama.

qualifications don't matter. the USA electorate is getting dumber and dumber. I would not be surprised to see a Michelle/any Hispanic on the ticket.

then promise amnesty, free college, free health care.

and that ticket would win.

just to play devils advocate: dynasties have always been popular with voters.

would George Walker have been president or even governor of Texas without the Bush name ?
would Rand be senator from KY if his name wasn't Paul ?

and this is nothing new Dingall (in congress since 1955) took the seat when his father died.
it goesall the way back to John Quincy Adams.

Michelle has the name, the organization, the education, and is probably more of a socialist than Barack.

Hillary Clinton/Michelle Obama, huh?

There's only one way the Republicans can compete with such a novelty ticket:
Sarah Palin/Michelle Bachmann! ;)

Too bad it's unlikely someone like Mary Ruwart will be the first female President...you know, someone who actually knows what she's talking about.

So much for inherited powers. Although, a ticket like this good backfire in a good way.

The establishment is powerful enough to have pretty much whomever they want.

In case anyone hasn't noticed, the mainstream media has been playing up feminism and hate straight white men* for several weeks. It's getting ridiculous. It's the same thing they did for a couple of years before Obama was first elected. Everyday was pushing the race issue. They are sowing division and hate, in preparation for a Hillary or Michelle run, if not both at the same time. And they will probably win, because people will be drawn into gender battles just as easily, if not easier than race battles. Divide and conquer. Or in this case, divide and get almost everyone to vote Democrat.

*Per Candy Crawley, the GOP is the party of "mean white men".

Hillary won't run. I don't think Michelle is interested in running for any office either.

If Rand is nominated in 2016 I hope they are his opponents.
