Michelle Obama Jokes About Clinton’s Philandering?

The Daily Beast gushed about Michelle Obama’s fashion and performance on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert last night. It also reported on this curious exchange between Colbert and Michelle:

Mrs. Obama said she would.

“I would say, ‘Follow your passion, just be you,’” she replied very safely.

“I think he does,” Colbert said, to roaring laughter from those imagining Bill Clinton’s famously philandering past.

“I think he would,” she replied, flashing a smile at Colbert and chuckling as he clenched his fist in a display of mock-virility.

Some believe this is yet another indicator of the intense, ongoing hostility between the Obama’s and the Clinton’s. Yet another reason Biden may jump into the race for POTUS.
