Marc Lasry

We'll admit it seems pretty obvious (especially given her lastest hire) that Anna Wintour will continue to have a hand in politics while fulfilling her role as Condé Nast's artistic director and Vogue's editor in chief. But it seems certain that she's not going to be an ambassador. At least not anytime soon. Still, Friday's news that Marc Lasry, frontrunner for the French ambassador post, was withdrawing after his involvement with a mob-run poker ring became public, has some speculating Wintour might be offered the gig.
