[The notion that Barack and Michelle Obama have missed the overt reigns]( of power they enjoyed during the Obama presidency is widely held. Sure, some believe the former president has been pulling Joe Biden's strings from the beginning, but what if that isn't enough for the power-crazed couple? New York Post columnist Cindy Adams warned on Wednesday that[Americans shouldn't be shocked if Mrs. Obama "sneaks her way]( into the 2024 race." She began her op-ed by blistering Biden. Biden won’t debate. Can’t. Our codger-in-chief can’t even read the prewritten script in front of him fast enough to pronounce the words. So, forget him — which most of us already have.
