Yesterday the hardworking staff received this email from Michelle Obama:
Friend —
Barack turns 51 next month, and there will be a little celebration at our house in Chicago.
We’d like to give grassroots supporters an opportunity to join in the fun. You guys deserve it, and I know Barack would personally love to see you there.
Barack’s birthday is one of the last opportunities he’ll get for a little downtime before the final weeks of the election.
That won’t stop me from teasing him about all those new gray hairs he has — though I think it’s fair to say he’s earned every one.
So if you’re standing with Barack for the final months of his final campaign, there’s no better way to show it than by making a donation to build this grassroots organization today.
If you do, you’ll be automatically entered for the chance to join him for his birthday celebration in Chicago. We’ll also fly you out and take care of all the travel arrangements.

Thank you,
Michelle
Both presidential campaigns are pimping out their candidates to lure donations, but the hardworking staff has to wonder: Where does it all end?
With this email from Michelle?
Friend —
Barack and I made a promise to one another that we’d have a “date night” at least every other week while we were in the White House.

Our next date night is one of the last opportunities we’ll get for a little downtime before the final weeks of the election.
That won’t stop me from teasing him about . . . well, you’ll see.

No, thank you, Michelle.

If you think about it, though, it does all come down to which couple you’d rather have a threesome with. Which, presumably, is where this is all heading.
Yikes! Totally no comment.
Well, why else is “date night” in quotes? Read it again in that context:
