Michelle Obama has issues every bit as large as her husband's and the "remake" of her by the Obama campaign is just further evidence of that. I'd suggest that if a candidate can't win because he (and his wife) have to be "changed", then perhaps he shouldn't be running. The DNC shouldn't have taken the nomination away from Hillary. For all her possible foibles, at least she was real. Since she's no longer running, McCain is the next best answer for President. No fear of Obama, no racism, none of that stuff. Obama and his wife have too much dirt in their closet and McCain is just plain better. Isn't it funny how you can get the answer you want if you select the "right" people to ask?

Cindy McCain is an heiress who stole another woman's husband and has had a life of privilege, unlike most Americans.

If Michelle Obama had admitted to being addict to pain killers like Cindy McCain, it would be on the front page of every newspaper. If Michelle had stolen prescription from her employees like Cindy McCain, Fox News would be reporting that every day and night and the pundits would not get enough of it.

Double standards, media bias...or just call it what it is racism.

This photo was shot last week while she was in N.H with Governor Shaheen. Michelle, were you trying to get more Evangelical votes with this sitting? Oh, our Chicago gals are second to none.

How can the so called American people not favor Michelle more when she epitomizes the American dream. She had to actually fight to get whats she got, she didn't just get it handed to her. This Cindy girl was born into her wealth, as an American in this country there is nothing about Cindy that I can relate to. I'm not a drunk, I don't do botox, and I'm not a heiress. Michelle's rating should be even higher, if people are basing it on the real person itself. The racism in this country will raise its ugly head real soon.

At least she got a fat talk to much pay check to back her mouth. I'm sure you can't say the same. Stop being jealous and a hater. You know it's your kind that always lack because you put your mouth on others and miss out what God has for you. Close your mouth and stop being a hinderance to your ownself. Both of these ladies are unique in their own way. Michelle should be proud of what she has accomplished; because it sure wasn't a hand out like most us like to have rather than earn it. Lisa,

There are disgusting people who will insult her looks, manners, attitudes, intelligence simply because they do not like her and nothing will change their minds. So what. Those of us who like her evidently outnumber those of you who don't. So, vote for McCain since he is running against Michelle's husband and you can further express your views that way.

Seems like you would rather paint negativity with the derrogatory comments to caricaturize what supporters are like and keep the divisions going. Will this get posted?
