Suit yourself. I think they lived nicely down to expectations.

Anyone without the name "Obama" will win. Just look at the 2010 landslide election against the democrats ... because of Obama's policies and attempts to destroy our economy.

The GOP candidates do have solutions unlike Obama ... you just don't bother to listen ...

Right wingers are so pathethic. No class whatsoever.
At least the NASCAR folks didn't boo little kids like the Democraps did at their convention in 2000 when they booed Boy Scouts.

Liberals are the classless ones.

Moochelle deserved the booing because she wouldn't have been caught dead within 10 miles of a NASCAR event if her failed husband weren't in reelection mode.

While Gap Narrows, Professional Football Retains Lead over Baseball as Favorite Sport
They are followed by college football, auto racing and men's professional basketball

NEW YORK, N.Y. - January 20, 2011 - It's the eternal debate among sports fans - football or baseball? Most die-hard sports fans will always say both, but, if forced to choose, football wins yet again. Three in ten Americans who follow at least one sport (31%) say professional football is their favorite sport while 17% say baseball. This is a narrowing of the gap from last year when over one-third (35%) of sports fans said professional football was their favorite sport and 16% said it was baseball.

These are some of the results of The Harris Poll of 2,331 adults surveyed online between December 6 and 13, 2010 by Harris Interactive.

Looking at how other sports fared, just over one in ten sports fans (12%) say college football is their favorite sport while 7% say it is auto racing, 6% say men's professional basketball, 5% say hockey, and 4% each say men's soccer and men's college basketball. Most other sports are favorites for 2% or less of sports fans. Two sports however, women's professional basketball and women's college basketball, are not favorites for any sports fan.

There are some fluctuations in favorites over time. Since this question was first asked in 1985, professional football has gone up 7 points from 24% of sports fans saying it was their favorite sport then to 31% saying so now. Baseball, on the other hand, has gone down 6 points from 23% in 1985 to 17% today.

I'm not Michelle Obama's or her husband's biggest fan (but then again looking at who the right are running against him, I might just end up voting for him) but I think that it's just downright rude, ignorant, and low-class for people to be booing. If you don't respect her, at least respect the title of the First Lady. I don't really believe in booing anyone at any of these sports events though. Like I said, I think it just shows the people to be low-class imho.

Its a far more polite response than Bush received from the rabid left at ANY event, but we all know the left considers obnoxious behavior towards their opponents as right and proper.

She was? I am only now hearing this.

GOOD! Isn't our Freedom of Speech a beautiful thing? Not, or not yet living in a country where those publicly boo'ing have to fear being found dead at a later date.

Oh please, if it were up to Michelle they'd be riding around the track on bicycles like a bunch of fairies.

No! That would only be true if you cheered the Obummers.
