(Reuters) - First lady Michelle Obama acknowledged on Tuesday that the change her husband Barack Obama sought in his White House campaign four years ago has proven difficult but urged voters to give him another term to fix the weak U.S. economy.

"He reminds me that we are playing a long game here, and that change is hard, and change is slow, and it never happens all at once," she told the Democratic National Convention in Charlotte, North Carolina. "But eventually we get there. We always do," she said.

Clair (Michelle) Huxtable, America's sweetheart?

Even Rasm had her at 61% favorability on Aug 30. It looks like those polled are ether hypnotized or outright lying.

They didnt call me :(

The real question is if MO’s favorability ratings and praise for BO have any effect on who votes or who they vote for, in a bad economy with 16T$ debt.

I think maybe Obama got a post RNC bump down(the MSM was not expecting this) , will see if his convention reverses that.

If after 4 you are worse off than when you started, I don’t want to see where another 4 gets us.

” Then she went on about how hard work pays off with success.....hard work? “

No two people on earth worked less hard for success, than Michele and Obama.

I agree, hussein needs time. About 40 years in the federal penitentiary should suffice.

Michelle Obama’s speech delivered a powerful punch - administered with a delicate velvet glove... She’s a force... not to be underestimated...

It is scary that there are voters who say they vote for/against based on First Lady.

Laura Bush was probably the most attractive and well spoken (and popular) first ladies in our lifetime, yet soon after leaving office she reveals that she is a social-liberal in her book, abortion and gay marriage. She was window dressing. She hid her real views.

I am the one deeply skeptical whenever I read a freeper claiming Republicans will win in a landslide, Just like I was skeptical when all the others (freepers) assured me that the SCOTUS would overturn Obama-care.
Never view the world in glasses that make the world look exactly the way you want and conclude it's real..

The other day I pointed out that MO’s positives were 61% in a Rasm poll at the end of August. I am not waking up on election day like those clueless Hannity fans did in 2008.
