I'm sure her wit and insight will prove to be an assist
For the first time in my adult lifetime, I am really proud of my country. And not just because Barack has done well, but because I think people are hungry for change. And I have been desperate to see our country moving in that direction.
she has been really busy with such great causes as fighting childhood obesity. that's a brain buster. "hey fatso, stop drinking soda and go take a walk." do we really need to spend tax dollars on that?
Despite stinging criticism of her summer vacation to Spain with daughter Sasha — aides warned her not to go, and the backlash was fiercer than they had imagined — Mrs. Obama is the most popular member of her husband’s administration.
Her poll numbers are trending the same as the hubby.
In a recent Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll, 50 percent of those surveyed say they have a positive opinion of Mrs. Obama. That's down from 64 percent in April 2009 and 55 percent in January of this year. The first lady's positive rating is barely ahead of her husband's personal-approval figure, which stands at 46 percent in the new poll.
Yes, my dear, please DO come out and campaign where your husband can't.

Mrs. Obama's ratings are decidedly different from predecessor Laura Bush. In December 2001, as George W. Bush's popularity soared after the 9/11 attacks, Mrs. Bush's positive rating stood at 76 percent in the Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll. Nearly four years later, in 2005, it was 65 percent. Still later, when President Bush's job-approval rating hit bottom, Mrs. Bush fell briefly to 54 percent -- still above where the current first lady is today.
