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.

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
her pet causes, yes. Party flack no.
I guess democrats make no distinction in
the co-presidents.
