As the midterm campaigns heat up, Democratic candidates are turning to the White House for help and an injection of star power. But it is the first lady, not President Barack Obama, who in some places is emerging as the more sought-after campaigner.
Some Democrats contend that Mr. Obama's sagging popularity limits where he would be helpful this election cycle. Bringing higher approval ratings and a less-partisan pitch, Michelle Obama already has hit the trail, appearing earlier this month in Georgia with Senate candidate Michelle Nunn. Next month, the first lady's campaign travel will include a visit to Iowa, where Democratic Rep. Bruce Braley is battling Republican Joni Ernst for an open Senate seat.

Diabetics like my husband cannot eat rice, crackers, carrots, raisins, grapes, grape juice..... too high in carbs.
Even is you take the meds, and get better glucose readings, the damage is still happening internally. You have to cut the carbs way back. Michelle O never studied nutrition!
Diabetics would do better to eat things like lean chicken breast, turkey, fish. And greens like spinach and Romaine lettuce. NOT CARROTS AND GRAPES AND RAISINS!
Grapes are like little sugar pills.
Doctors are now advising AGAINST fruit juices, little kids are rotting their teeth out.

At the campaign event in Georgia, she told the crowd that "if we lose these midterm elections, it's going to be a whole lot harder to finish what we started."
That's the idea Mrs. Obominable.
