Michelle Obama’s East Wing staff suggested she would take it slow once she started campaigning, emphasizing her nonpolitical “mom-in-chief” role and her noncontroversial fight against childhood obesity.
Instead, the first lady made her political presence felt immediately Wednesday, delivering an impassioned and overtly religious pitch for Democrats to defend her husband’s legacy in the midterm elections.
“We got this man in office; we’re all proud of Barack and his accomplishments,” Obama told syndicated radio host Tom Joyner before embarking on a week of campaign events that will take her to Wisconsin, Illinois, Colorado, Washington and California on behalf of endangered Democrats.
“Everybody I know in our communities [is] praying for us,” she said, adopting a religious theme seldom used by her husband — and landing her on top of The Drudge Report, a space she occupied with some regularity two years ago.
“Every day we feel that, and let me just tell your listeners, it means the world to us to know that there are prayer circles out there and people who want to keep the spirits clean around us,” she added.
It remains to be seen if the first lady can offer endangered candidates any real boost with less than three weeks to go — or if her help is too late. But she is raising spirits — as well as cash — with her presence.

Oh god make it stop?
When will this woman and her husband learn that this isn’t about “them.”
Moochelle must be hallucinating. What planet is she on right now?
Yeah ... to get saved!
“Everybody I know in our communities [is] praying for us,”
I assume that she means the Black community.
I’m sure Rev. Wright is still God****ing America and all whiteys so I’m not sure how far Michelles prayers will go.
What makes you think God is on your side, Toots?
” Everybody is ‘praying for us’ “......
...to disappear......
My prayer:
Dear Jesus, deliver us from this couple gently, gently. Let the think that they have gone on to bigger and better things, while removing them from the reins of power so that sane people can guide this great nation with your help.
I have been praying to God to remove the two of you Michelle.
Before any more damage is done and you cost people their lives not just their livelihood.
I re-listened to her saying that. She also said a few other things also. Glenn replayed it. They are downright creepy now a days.
As in an Exorcism?
Yes, you and Hussein have made me more religious. I pray Psalm 109:8 every day.
Yeah Michelle, we’re praying: Psalm 109:8
My prayer every day is that God would deliver this nation from the evil affliction of Obama and his administration and replace them with Godly leaders.
Chasing away the evil spirits?
Generally people pray that you receive GUIDANCE and do the right thing and open your eyes to the evils you are promoting.
It's an election year. They need to say some mumbo jumbo to make the Democrats appealing to the people in flyover country who "cling to religion".
