The out-of-work and Totally Bored at home are on social media overload already, and there’s no saying if there will even be a fun-filled “DNC’ on the old model in Milwaukee.

Standard high-draw campaign stops are a non-starter too, for now.]
Former Vice President Joe Biden’s campaign is planning a rollout for Michelle Obama’s endorsement, although there are questions around just how public a role the enormously popular former first lady will play in his campaign.

The trick for Michelle Obama and the Biden campaign is finding the right balance for the pop culture icon, who could be a massive asset for the campaign but has never shown much enthusiasm for campaign politics.
