This is not going to play as well as they hope for. I think her polling is dropping down to Barack’s level after all the recent trips.

Once outside Calif, New England and a few large urban areas she will not be as welcomed as what they are hoping for.

Her recent reign in Spain will stick like glue through November.

Please Michelle campaign for every single comrade that is running for (re-)election. We’ll see how many have ‘scheduling conflicts’

I guess it’s my failing memory but I don’t remember
Laura Bush stumping for republican candidates, for

I guess democrats make no distinction in
the co-presidents.

“Michelle Obama to hit campaign trail”

M.O.—the gift that keeps on giving.

There couldn’t be more benefit to the Republicans even if Steele resigned from the RNC.
