Funny, gracious and incredibly accomplished, she's one of the few people who can rival her husband's popularity. She also knows the neighborhoods where the games would be, having grown up on the South Side of Chicago. The Obamas' Chicago home is a short walk from the planned Olympic stadium.

Hey, she went from junior lawyer at a community activist law firm at 50K a year to big city hospital administrator in charge of dumping charity cases on OTHER hospitals at over $300K/year after ACORN and the corrupt Chicago Daley machine got her old man elected to the sentat.

Sounds pretty “accomplished” to me.

She looks like she’s gaining weight - or is the one size too small outfit?

My Italian news reported that Michelle is there because you know she grew up in a poor, poor neighborhood in Chicago...and while she chummed around with the Brazilian First Lady in Pittsburgh, the gloves are off now in Copenhagen. Wow, how classy.
