Reporting from Chicago — First Lady Michelle Obama promoted early voting this morning – in words and example – at a time when both political parties are encouraging their supporters not to wait until election day.

Obama, who is making a Midwestern campaign swing, cast her ballot at the Martin Luther King Community Center, not far from the Kenwood home that she and President Obama rarely get to visit.

Clutching a blue folder, Obama presented her credentials to election officials before being led to the polling station. Asked if she was familiar with touch-screen voting, Obama nodded and then spent about six minutes casting her ballot.

Can you imagine her having access to any clothes in the world she wants and wearing crap like that?! It boggles the mind!

Within 5 years, michelle is going to be asking oprah for weight loss tips.

The two biggest things growing in Washington is our federal debt and michelle’s ass.

That is the widest and worst boob belt — ever.

I see she has resurrected her boob-belt-’n’-tiny-sweater “look” from the early, honeymoon days of the O-bomb-UH! administration — hoping it will bring her luck in the elections? Yeah, when my son was in high school he had a pair of lucky underpants he wore to competitions.

Nice collection of boob belt shots. I'm surprised that anybody thought the boob belt was gone. It's our most signature fashion forward accessory, and the subject of my world famous video, Boob Belt Fever: The Movie... - http://www.michellesmirror.com/2010/03/boob-belt-fever-movie.html - - Hugs & ♥s, M

Any theories as to what caused the black lines above Michelle's wrists in the photo you posted? They weren't there earlier in the day when she voted.

At first I thought they might be from her too-tight sweater cutting off her circulation :) but her sleeves were higher up on her arm. Just curious, not trying to be snarky...(well, maybe a little).

did she hit the tatoo parlor in her old ‘hood?

[Palladin]

She often leans on the podium, so maybe someone forgot to dust it?

Just a guess.

not trying to be snarky
