Yes, the Obama's are a very nice family… however they should be making movies or sitcoms, they have no place in politics. It would be insane to put this family in charge of leading the worlds premier free nation!!!

Mark
From yesterdays speech I got to know about Barack's basketball skills, dating skills and his parental skills. All very useful skills but not the ones you need to be the Commander in Chief!!

Can we ever hear anything that matters from the Obama campaign?"

Patience young one Patience. This was only the first day of a four day convention. Not everything will be covered on the first day.

A great performance.
She looked good and she sounded smart.

But the fact still remains that she did say “America is down right mean country and this is the
first time she has ever been proud of her country”.
I personally find it sad that she feels that way about America.

Her actions and her speech are in direct conflict.
If she loves America why did she allow her kids to go to a church that promoted GD to America?

Which Michelle should we believe?
Also, why she didn’t mention not even once that she attended Princeton and Harvard?

What person in politics doesn't use a teleprompter when speaking in front of large crowds? It was an adress and a teleprompter was completely acceptable. Sounds like you were looking for anything to complain about.

anyone (and there are many of you here already)…
but anyone who questions the authenticity of the Obama family are LIARS and PAID HATERS…

it is in you job description…

"DOWNPLAY AND 'HATE' ON ANYTHING THEY SAY THIS WEEK"

LIARS

ALL OF YOU!

tjaye in LA,

Why did'nt she say that to the REV. WRIGHT while a member of his church? Hypocrites!

Michele Obama will be a great first lady!

Barack Obama will be a great president, so good that if Hillary wants to be president in 2016, all the Obama supporters will be there for her. And after her, Chelsea. Hillary is young, in 8 years, she'll be the perfect candidate for President, and she'll have 36 million votes in the primaries for sure.

What a waste the first night of the Democrat convention was. It must be true that the Dems don't have anything substantial or of substance to offer. Just more of the same BS pep talks. Obama is sinking fast. No platform, no experience, no core policies, just a lot of hype and talk. And….now, he's got Biden as his VP choice. Wow, the man who claims to be against "old style" Wash DC politics just picked a person with one of the longest histories in DC to be his VP choice. And….he had Kennedy (who's been around DC forever) as one of his key note speakers on the opening night of the convention. Looks to me like Obama is falling in to "old style" politics nicely. Change? Are you kidding me?

By the way C-span is the place to watch the convention…NO SPIN!

To Carol (and everyone else who keeps mentioning that Obama doesn't have "experience"): No one really has experience that prepares them to be President of the United States, unless they've actually BEEN President. Sen. Obama has many years of experience in government at the state and federal levels and, more importantly, in the things that matter to most people. Michelle Obama is educated, intelligent, articulate, savvy, obviously a loving mother and wife, and I am impressed by what she has made of her life and what she is trying to accomplish for her children. Sen. Obama very obviously loves this country and has a vision for this country like no other in recent history. He is able to bring people together and give us hope for the future. He will surround himself with people on whom he can rely for advice and counsel, and he will listen to them. I believe this country will flourish with Obama as President, and we will achieve respect on the world stage that we have not had in recent years. I believe electing Sen. Obama as President is crucial at this point in our history, as electing McCain will not serve to effect the changes we need…and we need change now! Thank you.

She was fantastic and made me proud of being a member of the democratic party. I think it's high time that the media pundits stop brainwashing the people saying," People don't know who Barack Obama is and waht he stands for". It's also high time that if the republicans have nothing positive to say about McCain that they stop their negative campaigning and retire into oblivion just as McCain will do come November.

"looks cute" – now we know Obama's place for women.

Heres the funny thing. Americans by nature are very lazy. Go ahead and look at it, sure there are the hugely successful and what not, but in general we are very complacent and happy in our daily ruts. The Obamas say they are like everyone else, ha. I didnt get a scholorship to college because of my skin color. In fact I was denied some due to it. You have a great family and I am happy for you that you made good on your situations, but dont pander me by saying you are just like the rest of us

This article presents yet another opprotunity for me to point out that Michelle Obama is hott!!! She is a total MILF. The camera caught her profile once and WOO HOO!
Obama better be good to her or a young man such as myself might have to steal her away.
Oh, and her speech was very poignant and very well done. She speaks as well as her husband

"Judge not lest ye be judged… " [Jesus Christ]

Anyone of you here who thinks that they could have done it better.. Step up to the podium.

Michelle Obama was awesome and so uplifting last night. She shared her personal story and their family isn't so different after all.
There's so many nasty and negative comments up here. Is electing John McCain what we really want or need after the BUSH SCANDALS?
It's time we take control of our country, our economy, build a future for our children and grandchildren. Her speech as very heartfelt. Unless she has acting for Hollywood soaps under her belt this was a very sincere and genuine speech. WE need Change in the Washington. Obama is change McCain = SAME ol dirty scandals and tricks from the Bush Administration. Michelle is BEAUTIFUL, charming, intelligent and our nation is Blessed to have her as a Potential First Lady.

A True American family. Only time will tell if America wants to make them the first family.

I have always been a Republican…however, this year I just can't pull myself to vote for McCain. He has nothing in common with the oridinary American. His wife as nothing in common with the average woman. They both have poor morals. These two are so fithy rich they have lost tounch with the common folk! Obama is more "in-touch" with American economic and social issues.
Obama/Biden in 2008!

I'd love to hear from Cindy MCCain. This nation must be getting tired of electing incompetent and senile people as leaders to nowhere. Just look at where this nation has been in the past 8 years because of FEAR!!! You wake up each day and listen to dead beat fools who calim nothing but service. Are parents, teachers, doctors etc. not serving this nation? War vs. disease; the doctors are the true heros!!

She did look great. It will be camelot again.

Cute is in the eye of the be holder. CNN is beauty ! I see ugly!

…."always treat people with respect and dignity even if you don't know them and even when you don't agree with them".

How can you say that and then still believe that it's alright to kill a baby that survived an abortion, or even believe in partial birth abortion??? don't these 'people' deserve respect and dignity as well??

I believe the proper term for the Obamas is HYPOCRITES!

She is very ugly to me!!!

Yes! Caroline Kennedy shut down Wolf Blitzer. Enough with the "Hillary needs more coddling" melodrama, Blitzer.. Just try being an issue reporter not a gossipy lightweight.

michelle and chappaquiddick teddy one following the other. Great night, all you need is jimmy carter, the worst president ever, until oshama gets elected. By the way, ted graduated after being kicked out of harvard twice, but graduated 163 of 165. brilliant man.

Lisa,
God don't like ugly

Not impressed, she can read….wow.

Yes, Michelle was moving, eloquent and beautiful last night. In other words "she was the bomb!" Your daughters were just too cute. I can't wait to see your family in the White House.
I'm more than ready for intelligence, vision, leadership and a change from the last 8 miserable years.

Obama & Biden 08 & 12
Michelle & Caroline 2016
That's a change we can believe in!!!!!

Michelle was GREAT!
I have had enough of the media blasting the Obama's and the Clinton's since this convention started. I am starting a petition to protest aganist ALL THE MEDIA VENUES that only show McCain's commericals geared against Obama in all of their talking points. We have seen all of the McCains commericals free of charge for the MccCain camp and its done every hour on the hour. The media has definitely been bias in its reporting this past month for McCain, and CNN and FOX are top on the list. This is the only reason McCain numbers are rising… why wouldn't it?
CNN I am ashamed. I'm watching the convention on C-Span
HORRIBLE COVERAGE!!!

lulu August 26th, 2008 2:37 pm ET

As a Hillary supporter and 30-year democrat who turned Independent on June 2nd, and who is now voting for McCain, I will give the Obamas credit where it is due…those two little girls are cutie-pies.
——————————————————————————————

And i give you credit for being a Hillary support and not a 30 year democrat. Care to tell me how John McCain and the republican platform even remotely resembles HIllary's?

It brought tears to my eyes! But, then again, I'm a pathetic, uneducated, bob-bon eating couch potato, with no life, who is easly influenced and easily led by pretty words and pretty pictures.

In other words, I'm a typical Democrat!

I am pleased to see America is getting to know the real Michelle, What does Sean Hannity, Bill O'Relley and the rest of FoxNews have to say now. Go girl I am proud of you and Barack.

I bet Cindy McCain will not be able to top Michelle Obams speech and would you hatefull Republ have to say then. She have no story but war stories like her husband.

He finally told the truth on one thing. He is not the boss or even a partner in that marriage. It is easy to see who wears the pants and who wears the panties. She did some good acting talking about America but I have the feeling her first few speeches about america , Whitey and how she hates america still rings true in my mind. I got to say that all the money they spent on her makeover was good but you can paint a leopard all you want but when the paint comes off the spots are still there.

WOW..

The Detractors here are not supprisingly Long on Hate and Short on Intellect.

Being Angry and hateful requires a lack of intelligence to exist.

If only this woman who wants to be the first lady can get her husband
Barak to admit. He is just as much white as he is black, and that he
can't even take care of his half brother who is poor in Africa. What
kind of an indication are we suppose to accept of how he would take
care of the poor in America, or the white people as well. I have seen
racism from the beginning of all of this starting with the Oprah Winfrey
endorsement on. It is all about the first BLACK man becoming the
next president of the United States. How come he can't admit that
he is white also. If he didn't play the race card he would not be where
he is at today. If he was the white Obama, he would be out of the
running. I am and my very large family and many friends are dedicated democrats , but with Hillary out , McCain is our person
that we will choose to lead this nation in these sorrow times.
As far as Joe Biden, he should be the President if Hillary can't.
This man has the ability to lead our nation. He has proven it so
many times in the Senate. So we are sorry Senator Biden , but
we have been left know choice but to vote for McCain. We can't
vote for a man that doesn't care about his brother or the fact that
he is white also… We have a big problem with that and we know
many others do as well.

Obama and his wife are such narcissistic egomaniacs. I was a Clinton supporter before she threw her support behind these hucksters. Anyone that believes that the Obamas have the best interest of the nation at heart is a fool. I am a very disillusioned Democrat who will be sitting out this election cycle. I hope I am proven wrong, but don’t hold out much hope for that. Obama is the Democratic version of G.W. Bush. I guess this just proves the ignorance of the American electorate!!

"I rank fourth after Malia, Sasha, and Michelle."

So, he admits his 6 year old is more qualified. We all knew it but thought his delusions of granduer were blinding him to it…

Michelle Obama was excellent and looked beautiful

Leslie Sanchez is horrible with CNN. She should worry about the clothes she wears instead of tearing Michelle. Leslie Sanchez is what McCain surrounds himself with. Nasty, nasty people.

I was a Republican – now voting for Barack Obama.

For those who attack Michelle's speech…why don't you wait for Cindy's speech on how she stole Carol's husband (not much of a steal though), became a drug addict, lets her husband publicly degrade her. I am sure you will find that more enlightening.

The perfect team: Barrack = Ego and Michelle – Self Rightionist

Who do these 2 think that we're that dumb to recognize a talker instead of a walker based on one European trip and one speech by the misses.

Too bad Senator Obama wasn't Gender Blind to focus on what the other 1/2 of the party wants. Too bad Michelle and Nancy Pelosi can't compete with focus and dedication and so sad that our tax dollars were wasted on this 4 day long poor excuse for the Democratic process a.k.a. Commercial when we have more serious issues like people losing their homes, soldiers dying in a lie of war, people sleeping in their cars because they can't afford a gallon of gas, once of food, medicine or to take care of their children without putting them to work.

Want Unity – tell and show us what you've done in the brief less than 4 yrs in Washington D.C. to eleviate that versus tell us countless times how you wouldn't support this country when attacked.

Has Cindy McCain not had a platinum spoon shoved down her thorat from day one> What the hell does she know about what a "normal" family goes through.

Cindy McCain is like a Stepford wife. Every hair in place, perfect clothes, 24/7. I swear if she turned around you would see the handle used to wind her up.

Lillian – Just read most of these comments and you will know that most of this hatefull comments are from women and that is a same. God said a angry women is worst then dripping water and we all know that dripping water is very ignoring.

Michelle Obama for president!

I was so proud! I'm not sure pride is what I expected to feel, but I did. Hopefully, our whole country could come together — if only for a few minutes — to be proud of an outstanding performance by a fellow American, which this was! Michell actually shocked me, not by being "good" because I knew she would be. What I didn't expect was her incredible skills as a speaker. She made me laugh and at times my eyes watered; she made me feel good about who she was and who I was as well. She was able to make all women proud, not just black women, although goodness knows she did that too. She made me feel what it was like to be a black woman really proud of another black woman even though I'm a white woman. They were my sisters and my heart sang with the happiness they were able to feel at that moment in time. And the children? Priceless! If children really are a reflection of their parents' skills as child-care givers, those two little girls were a bright reflection of the love and care they are given every day by their mommy and daddy. Hooray for Michelle! Hooray for women and how far they have come!!

fact:

For all the TALK that the Dem.'s and Repub.'s are doing, 95% of Americans are not like the Mccain's, the Obama's, etc.

We don't have millions, don't live in a huge home or own 8, we don't have the spotlight on us, don't ahve drivers, nannies, chef's, housekeepers, etc.

The McCain's and Obama's, as well as any politician or celeb that speaks about having so much in common with the average American is a joke. THEY HAVE NO CLUE!

When was the last time the Obama's had to worry about paying a bill, standing in line at the market, for transportation, trying to find a Dr. they could afford.

ALL LIP SERVICE. ALL POLITCAL PANDERING. POLITICS AS USUAL.

THE PROOF IS IN THE ACTIONS, AND WE ALL KNOW HOW THINGS SEEM TO SATY THE SAME FOR THE MAJORITY.

TWO SETS OF JUSTICE IN THIS COUNTRY, AS WELL AS TWO TYPES OF PEOPLE. THE HAVE'S AND THE HAVE NOT'S.

No speech, no president, no promise is going to change that.

Can you imagine how cute the two of them will look at the inauguration ball? They are not only intelligent and worth their weight in gold but I am sure they can put people to shame with their dance moves too. LOL!

i watched in on cspan too. CNN idiots talk way too much and didn't even show some of the speeches I wanted to see. They have a lot to learn about REPORTING the news, and not creating it.

CSPAN RULES!

To those who want to know who is the "real Michelle", I say, ask first who is the real McCain – the con man behind the Keating scandal, the hypocrite who is surrounded and beholden to lobbyists, the always irate and angry person who referred to his own wife as a sl..? McCain has flip-flopped on every issue many times over the past 6 months. He has voted against innovation, against new energy methods (because lobbyist funding was not there versus what he could pocket from the oil lobby). Once you are done understanding what a hoax McCain has been, the answers and our choice will be obvious.

"Looked cute?"

I guess it's good to know we have a First Lady again who knows her true function, rather than having an office in the White House and helping with health care and such.

/sarcasm

MICHELLE DID AN AMAZING JOB LAST NIGHT. I AM PROUD THAT THIS COUNTRY CAN FINALLY BE ON THE VERGE OF ELECTING AN AFRICAN-AMERICAN. THEY WILL DO OUR COUNTRY PROUD, SO MUCH MORE SO THAN WHAT WE HAVE HAD IN THE LAST 8 YEARS. THEY TOGETHER WITH THE BIDENS WILL RESTORE OUR CREDITABILITY IN THE WORLD

Her strength showed through last night like sun and I as many others feel fortunate that we were basking in the sun last night. And as always, there will be those who will have something negative to say about Michelle but as the saying goes, “People are going to talk about you until the day you die, so it’s really important what people call you, it’s what you answer to that counts.”

Faith sees the invisible, believes the incredible and receives the impossible!

Leona Helmsley Jr. [queen of mean] She was trying to do damage control for saying america is a down right mean country, among the many other controversial statements she has made. It didn't work we know who you are.

David W. August 26th, 2008 2:46 pm ET

Yea, She's real cute. Just wait until she gets in the White House. The Obama's do not believe in Christmas so at least our tax money will not be spent on a national Christmas tree in front of the WH.
__________________________________________

"The Obama's do not believe in Christmas…" ROFLMAO

Brilliance!

Nobama…let him lose. The dem deserves to lose this year for they support someone who stole the nomination. Obama is just another Bush!!

Mark you are an idiot…why in the hell would someone coach their kids to show affection towards them? Your child must be Malichi from children of the corn???

who cares if she looks cute there kids are cute hes cute. What are they going to do for the country cute them to a better economy? when people say they dont know Obama that is what they are talking about not his Biography but what he HAS DONE and what HE WILL DO with some specifics.. I also notice that the poll listing is off the CNN page. tie polls dont mean anything.

Lisa, you are absolutely the only person who did not think Michelle did a good job. But then, you never have anything nice to say about the Obamas on any blog! You're outnumbered, Michelle was AWESOME!!

Lisa – I have read your messages and they are all way negative. Please let go of your angry before it kills you. That sure tell you something that you are the only one that didn't think Michelle did'nt do a good job. Learn to let go and look beyond your hatred. She was not reading the whole time. Quit looking for a reason not to like her. I really feel sorry of you and hope you ask God to fix your heart!

I love Michelle Obama…what a strong, smart woman who clearly loves her family and husband. I think the Obama family is great…they really seem to genuinely love and support each other.

How does McCain get to be the family values candidate, purely on the basis of being a Republican? McCain is with a younger woman he cheated on his paralyzed wife with. Doesn't say family values to me! Or judgment, experience, morals….do I need to go on?

Carol August 26th, 2008 2:14 pm ET

She is cute and loves her family. I wish her husband had supported Sen. Clinton and gained some experience and ran for president 2012 then I could hav voted for him. I will never vote for a president with out expeperience. My kids voted for Pres. Bush thank goodness they got the picture.
——————————————————————————————-

By your own logic Carol that would mean in your opinion Bush (whom you are knocking in your last sentence) would be better than Clinton, McCain, or Obama since hey he is the sitting President. No more sperience (spelled wrong on purpose) than that huh. You would be perfectly fine with 4 more years of this huh? Geez people think for once about the betterment of this country and your fellow citizens and not just yourselves.

OBaMa o8!

The truth shines through the smears this year!

Michelle was reading a script but I can tell you that I saw her @UCLA on Superbowl Sunday and she doesnt NEED a script. The woman is authentic and brilliant without even the use of notecards.

How sweet it is….

Is it me, or does the Clinton/Obama 'feud', being fed by the press remid u of tabloid Journalism?

Making a mountain out of a molehill. Clinton is a mature and smart politician and she and Obama have mended any fences and moved forward.

The PRESS should stop making it out like a fight between to celebrities JUST because it appeals to the lizard brain of the consumerist American.

I know it brings in viewers but go the higher road.

MCCain also, could afford to not use the 3AM phone call ad against Obama, just because it makes me think of him up at 3AM trying to pee.

If you weren't moved, touched and inspired by Michelle Obama's speech last night–well then, you must not be breathing–

It was a defining moment for this campaign—Great job Michelle!!!

It's time for change in Washington and for the country—

Obama-Biden '08 is the Team that will deliver!!!!!!!!!!!

Even Mrs. Obama is a flip flopper. She said before that it is the first time in her adult life that she is proud to be American. Now on her speech yesterday, she is very proud to be American. So which is which Mrs. Obama. You know what, they will do everything to be elected.

She is a lovely person and I was not let down one bit. She is a good person, intelligent person, and I will be proud to call her the President's wife. She has been where a lot of us come from and it has nothing to do with skin color. There are other ways people can be falsely judged by who they are without knowing them on a personal basis.

What a gracious, respected, intellectual first lady she will make!!!
She's not a stepford wife, but a girl from a blue collar family, who studied hard, and worked hard to get where she is. She is a 2008 woman! A mother who teaches her children morals and character, by living her life as an example! She is a career women who is highly educated, who worked hard and studied hard to get where she is! NOTHING was handed to this woman! She is a loving, devoted wife, who spends her time and life invested in HER FAMILY!
What an example to all young our young women!! You can have it….if you work for it and work at it!
Princesses…. are from fairy tales, the Hilton's or booze heiresses!

Michele Obama is the real deal….the American Dream come true!

BRAVO! Michelle Obama. What a brilliant performance.
Move over meryl streep we have a Oscar winner here.

It was fine. Everyone wants it to be great and says it was great, but it was just fine.

Michelle Obama was magnificent. Wonder what Cindy McCain will say—I'm rich and I stole another woman's husband!! That's about all she can lay claim to

Hmmmmm would love to see what type of speech Cindy McCain will give…..

Michelle Obama is a great person .

I wonder who Mc Cain will choose as a runningmate?
ALL the Speakers scheduled at the RNC are PRO CHOICE>..

Not only did she knock the ball out the park with such a gracious and informative speech. She looked good. Please tell Leslie Sanchez, I do believe who made a remark about her dress. Well first of all it was not a cocktail dress and I'm sure any top designer would vouch for that. I do not think you would make the best dress list of Mr. Blackwell or others yourself. She is young, very stylish.and statuesque (model type) Don't be a hater! Oh! by the way a new hair-do should be on your mind, the 60's look and muscle shirts have long gone.

TO EVERYONE WHO CONTINUES TO POUND THE "EXPERIENCE CARD": WHAT EXPERIENCE DID A GOVERNOR FROM TEXAS WITH TWO FAILED BUSINESS VENTURES HAVE???????????

AND EVEN WITH ALL THE "EXPERIENCE, JUDGEMENT, 'WISDOM' " OF BUSH……CHENEY……..MCCAIN……….. THEY LIED………..LIED……….LIED ………TO US…..ALL……….. AND WE STILL WANT MORE OF THE SAME????????????????????????????

ARE WE NOW SUPPORTING PEOPLE WHO LIED TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE??????????????????????????????????????????

BUSH/CHENEY/MCCAIN (GOP CONGRESS 94-06) HAVE NEARLY
DOUBLED OUR……..NATIONAL……….. DEBT………..TO ALMOST…….
$10 TRILLION……………… CAN WE AFFORD ANOTHER GOP??????

AND TO "PELOSI SUCKS" SO YOU THINK MICHELLE OBAMA IS A FAKE?????? WHAT DO YOU CALL CINDY-MONEYBAGS-MCCAIN?
SHE LOOKS LIKE A BARBIE DOLL……….. AND SHE AND MCCAIN BOTH CHEATED ON THEIR SPOUSES!

WHO IS FAKE? WHO LACKS CHARACTER AND MORALS?

I came, I saw, I was unimpressed. Nice rehearsed teleprompter reading. (yawn)

Lisa You'r not the only one, I thought her speech sucked it was all about ME ME ME ME—–US US US US There goes the neighborhood!!!

Michelle, thanks for keeping it real. excellent job. Now let's ask sen. McCain about his family values and his first wife whom he cheated on and had a affair with Cindy McCain and divorced his first wife.

what they did was circus..

YEAH!!

TEENS FOR OBAMA/BIDEN 2008!!

WE HAVE THE NUMBERS TO MAKE THE DIFFERENCE… NO MORE REPUBLICAN IDIOTS!!

MICHELLE….. THE NEXT FIRST LADY………………

I am amazed at how much Hateration goes on in here. Michelle said something last night that went over the heads of every Republican and Hillary Die Hard…."always treat people with respect and dignity even if you don't know them and even when you don't agree with them".

You people are the poison that keeps slowly killing the American image and dream.

It will be fantastic for Senator Hilary Clinton to standup enormously firm in support of Barrack Obama. She should make it honestly clear that, she believes none of her followers are racist or will become racist afterward, and that the rational her supporters support her was due to her ideologies, not because of racial support. So there is absolutely no reason any of her supporters should vote for Senator McCain, because her dreams has nothing in common with senator McCain. A vote for senator McCain from her support will be seen contrarily, as a racial vote, not an ideological vote. This will be heeling for herself and Barrack in many ways, I suppose.

Lisa August 26th, 2008 2:39 pm ET

I'm I the only person who thinks Michelle didn't do a great job? It's obvious she was reading the whole time!!
——————————————————————————

Wow, you really had to grasp far to come up with a criticism, but I'm glad for your sake you found something.

People don't memorize speeches.

AND LOU DOBBS WILL HAVE AN INDEPENDENT CONVENTION
IN SEPTEMBER AFTER THE REPUBLICAN CONVENTION.

I thought she did great. She epitomizes the 21st Century 'Everywoman"…wife, mother, career…and looking amazing doing it! Go Michelle!

Smart women know that Michelle Obama is also smart and the real deal.

Catty women hate her for it—for some reason.

One thing an education provides is the ability to construct and deliver speeches that convey the appropriate message. We heard a lot about her family but still generalities for comparison on Obama's background. This couple set a goal and worked their resume. If all "community organizers" got paid the big bucks they did, everyone would be able to do that. As Americans we have a freedom of choice. Choosing McCain over Obama does not mean you are a sore loser. There are too many unanswered questions about Obama. And his many "errors" in Judgment do not ease the fear. His race is the least of my concerns at this point. It appears that the democratic establishment needs as Obama called himself " a blank slate" to continue their own personal agendas. As Americans we must follow our own voice and elect the person based on integrity and experience not based on party offerings. It's really that simple. It's pretty clear that Obama for all his funding and Hype had a hard time closing the deal on Hillary . I think he got a free ride during the primary and as the polls show his ticket will get punched by the republicans who will no longer provide a free ride.

I was impressed by her poise and speaking ability on the dais. Not that I expected her to sound like a dummy. But she is a very good public speaker. Not that many people could do what she did in front of such a crowd, with expectations so high. And, when you consider that she is the wife of the candidate and not the candidate himself, I think she exceeded expectations.
But I do think Obama probably should not have used "cute". No matter how good looking she is or how good looking he thinks she is, I think it diminshed her accomplishment.

McCain is an IDIOT!!

I am ashamed of other hilary supporters who are going to vote for him! although i think the number is pretty low.. i really dont know they can spend the next 4 years with a republican as president!!

so.. vote obama this year, hilary in 2012!!

IM still a proud DEMOCRAT!!

OBAMA/BIDEN 2008!!!

Yea, She's real cute. Just wait until she gets in the White House. The Obama's do not believe in Christmas so at least our tax money will not be spent on a national Christmas tree in front of the WH.

It is not condescending 2 think your wife is cute. My husband thinks and says I'm cute, even when on days I look like a troll. The man loves his wife, I know that may make him some kind of alien type guy, but there are still a few of us who have been married for a while who still like our spouses! I respect that. You should also. Oh yeah, she really did look cute last night:)

She was beautiful — articulate — sincere. Her words about her little girls really hit home for me. Anyone who did not see the sincerity in her words is a cynic of the highest order.
What a truly gracious and caring First Lady we will have.

He was a Republican, until he looked in the Mirror!

galactic def klingon – with a moniker like that….its obvious your mindset. But let's elect the smart guy this time. That wouldn't be you because I would bet you couldn't get hired as the custodian at Harvard. Stop disrespecting educational achievement. Listen it makes you sound really stupid to demean someone because they have struggled, achieved and put themselves through one of this nations highest and most prestigious learning institutes.

Jack Smith – are you upset becasue you mother didn't show you any love so you have to attached Michelle Obama! You are miserable!

God bless the Obama family….
We are going to have a smart and beautiful family in the white house.

Obama 2008/2012

Geez zzzzz, people it was a scripted speech. Her speech was ok , nothing out of this world Enough already.!! We will always remember the mean statements she said about America.. Funny how she didn't mention those!! Poor Barack he didn't remember where he was yesterday St. Louis or Kansas. God forbid if he becomes prez he sends troops to the wrong country!

KEEP THE CHANGE

Michelle made an excellent case for who Senator Obama is! I thought she was articulate and brilliant. I love the Obama family, their daughters are so cute.

Marxist, Militant Michelle did a great job in expressing her love to Barry….what else would one expect. She is finally proud of her country…go home back to Chicago.

This woman is great. This is by far her best speech. For all those people who still want to disrepect her by calling her a "baby mama" should check themselves. This is a Wife, a loving wife who loves her husband, loves her children and loves her country.

Debby, Chill with the rock star bit. It was Senator McCain who was hamming it up with Jay Leno last night. It's funny how Fox and the rest of you right wingers call Obama a celebrity and rock star and make it seem so bad and negative but when people start talking about McCain being part of the super rich you guys start talking it's part of the American Dream.

out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks! she has a heart of gold for America. We should apprecite her, in spite of the fact that she is human and can misspeak at times, like all of us.

ZZzzzzzzzzz

HILLARY 'S UNITED AND LOYAL SUPPORTERS WILL BE GLAD TO HEAR THAT THERE IS ONE OUTSTANDING CNN ANCHOR NEWS
JOURNALIST WHO IS FAMOUSLY INDEPENDENT: HIS NAME AND REMEMBER IT WELL IS ……LOU DOBBS !!! HE HAS A RADIO PROGRAM ALSO..

ALL HILLARY SUPPORTERS THEREFORE MUST, MUST STAY UNITED BEHIND HILLARY WHOSE CANDIDACY IS JUST ON HOLD UNTIL 2012.. HOLD ON TO YOUR PURSES AND WALLET AND MORE IMPRTANT YOUR VOTES UNTIL NOVEMBER.

Carol – YOU ARE A HYPICRITE YOU VOTING FOR Bush and he did'nt have any experience. I hate when people can not just compilment with out adding their negative comment after. Carol we don't need your vote.

Hey Jack Smith, if you're going to insult Michelle Obama then at least use the correct terms. It's Obama's baby's mama you idiot.

I'm am so tired of the hatred from some of you people on here. And I am disappointed in CNN's coverage last night having that ignorant loon James Carville on. I watched it on MSNBC and enjoyed it much more.

Obama/Biden '08/'12

@sarah1

It's condescending to think your wife is cute??? Man, am I in trouble!

"Honey!, sorry I didn't mean to call you cute!" I'll never do it again!

The story about how they met was funny and touching. Wonder how ol' McSame and his stepford wife are going to compete with that. Wasn't he, um, MARRIED when he chased Cindy around a table at the cocktail party when they met and started their affair?

Hmmmmm…

sarah1 August 26th, 2008 2:16 pm ET

he thinks she cute? how condescending.
*************'
In sarah1's lost world of reality…A man should find his wife ugly. But this would be a McCain supporter – always demeaning women. Remember the famous John McCain joke. "Chelsea is ugly because her dad is Janet Reno.

That's message discipline at its finest. GOP women embrace ugly (literally). Democrat women are all beautiful…this excludes those so called PUMA's

I love this blog of the koolaid drinkers. If any of you really believe that this was the real Michelle Obama then obviously you need to read her college thesis. But then again you don't care if this was the real Michelle Obama because you like the real Michelle not the one that was on stage last night trying to appeal to middle America.

I'm I the only person who thinks Michelle didn't do a great job? It's obvious she was reading the whole time!!

she is SO SO SO FAKE!!!!!!!!

What a slick polished speech and soooooooo heartfelt! My, my! Michelle has learned well during her months' long image make-over. Same old Michelle: bitter, angry, feeling slighted by white America, but repackaged to sell.

I'm sure that all of the "feminist" Hillary supporters are going to comment on how ugly they think Michelle is.

By the way, the Washington Post reported yesterday that Michelle's approval rating is actually higher than Hillary Clinton's approval rating at this point in 1992.

Take that you hateful PUMA people!

Having listened to Michelle throughout the campaign, I can say what we saw last night was the kinder, softer version of Michelle, "likable enough" in the words of her husband. I think it plays much better with the voters than the other Michelle. Question is who is the real Michelle and who is the real Barack?

P.S. If I were her stylist I would recommend that she not wear that cut of dress. Color was great though.

As long as she looked cute, that's the important thing. Put her with Biden's knock-out wife and we've successfully returned to the fifies. Long live Donna Reed.

Why does michelle always look like she suckiing her cheeks in when she smirks.. It looks really annoying.

I've never gotten so sick of two people in such a short time as I am of Obama The Clown and Mrs Clown.

You'd never see Obama pimp his wife out to biker gangs in Sturgis.

You'd never see Obama leave Michelle after a car accident.

Obama didn't marry for money or for political influence.

You'll never see Obama embroiled in a sex scandal. He doesn't have the capacity for it.

Barack and Michelle are two people in love, with children they love, doing what they can to change the world from what it is to what it should be. They're doing what they can for the world now, and for their children and for everybody's children. Obama isn't in the race for power or for prestige. He wants to help make the country and the world a better place, and is exactly the kind of politician that I've been waiting for in this country. More importantly, he wants all of us to help make the country a better place. Obama believes in participatory democracy, where everyone works together.

This is the difference between Obama and McCain. It was, during the primaries, the difference between Obama and Clinton, and Obama and Richardson, and so on. This was the difference between Obama and Keyes in the 2004 Senate race. This is why Obama has my support, both in donations and in volunteer activities.

to Sarah 1: he thinks she looks cute? how condescending.
______________________________________________
What in the world is wrong with you. I'm married a heck of a lot longer than they've been, I'm a heck of a lot older and my husband still calls me cute! What's condescending about that.
Jeez, have you ever heard of affection and just plain happiness.

As a Hillary supporter and 30-year democrat who turned Independent on June 2nd, and who is now voting for McCain, I will give the Obamas credit where it is due…those two little girls are cutie-pies.

Jack Smith August 26th, 2008 2:14 pm ET

Obama Mama Baby, go home we dont need you.

Harvard graduate and married to child's father is not proper, keep your trashy talking points for racist fox news!!!

Jack Smith August 26th, 2008 2:14 pm ET
Obama Mama Baby, go home we dont need you.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Jack,

'Baby's Mama'.

You're so stupid; you don't even know how to be a bigot.

This makes you even lower than a stupid bigot-kind of what floats at the bottom of a sewer.

Write back please.

Write back please.

Sarah1 he should say she looked ugly instead? Why don't you give a suitable list of words for him to choose from so he can please just YOU? She looked fabulous and will represent America nicely, I'm sure he will use another word besides "CUTE" to describe her in private but I don't think that one is any of our business.

But she is so ugly!

I look forward to CIndy talking about family values, she cheated with John after he returned home to a cripled wife and abused prescription durgs.

Experience? Since these people have never held the office of President, they possess no "experiance." You all voted for a Governer of Texas with "experience" and look what it got us, not only once but twice. You would think that with your own, "experience in voting" you would learn to vote for the person better suited for the job as opposed to someone just because he is older and for certain other reasons that you wouldn't dare state in public.

She's was cute … and not in that size zero, plasticky, botox kinda way .. You know like …

MICHELLE OBAMA WAS SIMPLY OUTSTANDING LAST NIGHT.

Believe it or not folks I honestly said a prayer last night, on two different occasions, first for Sen. Kennedy to be able to make his speech without any further health problem, and second for Michelle,
to give her strength to make an outstanding, moving, and inspirational speech.

WELL, I HAVE NO DOUBT THAT BOTH MY PRAYERS WERE
ANSWERED! Sen. Kennedy made so many people cry, and I have to tell you when he made that promise to be there to see President Barack Obama in January, I was just floored!

the thing i cant understand about this country is the fact that an african american has to plead thier case, over and over again just to fit in. I thought this was America where everyone is supposed to be on the same playing field. I hate hearing from the media (CNN) on how the american people are not sure who Barack is…then what the heck has he been doing for the last 19 months on numerous debates, town hall meetings, primaries? sheeesh ! How many times does Barack have to defend his faith, religion and his worth. They sure dont do this sort of thing with white folks.

I have no wish to anger the young senator by complimenting his wife more than he just did. He seems to be very protective of his wife and kids. I remember that sardonic grin he on Good Morning America when he stated "Leave my wife alone."

But, she does look better than Oprah.

Well, after last nights press coverage of the Dem Convention, I have come to realize one thing:

CNN does NOT have the best political team on television….

We switched over to PBS and were extremely pleased with Jim Lehrer and his analysis team–they were fair and balanced, not unnecessarily hung up on the search for controversy, avoided the whole stringing out of the Clinton followers that CNN is obsessed with, and put several lesser speeches like those of Barack's sister and Jesse Jackson Jr. in proper important perspective–while Carville and the pundits wanted only to downplay them and call the night "wasted."

Incidentally, did anyone see the brisk comment of Caroline Kennedy to Wolf Blitzer's rude prodding about the process of selecting a VP choice?

"No, I am not going to walk you through it. It was a confidential process."

Sheepish Wolf promptly shut up:)

F O R—-T H E—-F I R S T—– T I M E—–I N ——— M Y———L I F E——–

I' M———–C O N T R O L L I N G———-M Y———–A N G E R

This hag is anything but cute!

Now McCain's wife-she's something to look at!

MIchelle is UGLY!

MIchelle is UGLY!

MIchelle is UGLY!

MIchelle is UGLY!

Obama has good taste. Smart, saavy woman with curves.

So Michelle has a softer side to offset her angry side. I bet she has PMS.

Barrack looks like curious George and his wife has a huge booty. So where is the cute?

Yes Senator, your wife id a fabulous job last night. What a proud husband and dad you must be.

That is his opinion. I mean Obama's. Every body can tell a good story, if the story is written by donations from poor individuals over the internet. Michele Obama and Nancy Pelosi are not genuine people.

She did better than I expected. She didn't hurt the cause and that was my greatest fear. There has never been any doubt she would run circles around Cindy McCain…but any time a smart woman finds herself in a role where power is possible, people become afraid. American's are idiots. They fear intelligence. They would rather have a village idiot than a smart person who is capable of solving some of the problems because they fear change. They would rather give the problems to their children…just as my parents have done. I would rather have the hardships now and a chance for a future later.

omarosa here should have stuck to her college thesis about how whitey and american society would never allow her to fit in. at least she wrote that one.

instead what we got was a teleprompted scripted farce, written by some speechwriters in the back room. cliche talking points, cliche calls for "change", vaguery, i think we've seen this in every election ever.

Please MISSOURI, Give it to Obama. No Draft, Please. No Bush Cheney
Policies…….PLEASE

Yes, Michelle hit a real home run!

ouch…. voting for this ticket sure does hurt….. better than the alternative, but how do we get rid of the liberal effete from our upper ranks (pelosi, reid, dean) and get some real populists in there (Hightower, Dogget, Kucinich) somebody? anybody?

My husband is voting for McCain I have not decided but it isn't because of all the press is saying. I never deside tell I have geven each one there chance to show me everything they have to say.

The man clearly loves his wife. Can't fault him on that!

Behind every great man is a strong women. (Cindy) Not so strong thus we have McCain

It is always a nice thing to hear a good man lovingly praising his wife, so very much better than the C word McSame used when talking about his.

She was good! You know what else, she would make a great first lady!

Obama/Biden '08

Michelle
I love you and your husband. You were great!! The will be a better place when Barack becomes president. God has a plan for him and for us his people. I pray for you and your family, I pray that God will keep you close. Keep up the good work First Lady Obama!!!

Boy, I guess love really is blind……..Michelle cute?????? Yeah, like a barracuda might be cute….

On the positive side, it was just announced that McCain is ahead in the Gallup poll (and they call cell phones!) after the first day of the Convention!!!! This is a FIRST even for DIMocrats!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Democrat dopes should have gone with Hillary! Back when she would have chosen Obama as VP, and we've have this sewn up by now!

But NOOOOOOOOOOOO – Dean and Pelosi had to SHOVE an unelectable candidate down our throats! Well, they shall reap what they have sown

PUMA

Mr. Obama your wife was not "cute", her appearance was nothing short of spectacular. I'm still not voting for you, but your wife looked stunning – don't sell her short with "cute".

I like her, but I can't look at her when she talks. What is wrong with her face.

Great speech – of course it wasn't meant to reintroduce MO, but rather to obscure the fact that she and her husband sat in Rev. Wright's church for 20 years. If that speech makes anyone forget what's under that faux Jackie Kennedy exterior – the kool aid must be particularly strong.

To all of the strident Obama supporters – hope you don't mind having your wealth redistributed – or the borders left wide open for more illegal immigrants to pour through without thought to security first – . Obama is the candidate of George Soros who's agenda is hardly "America First".

HOW ABOUT TEENS FOR OBAMA

Michell you go girl, great speech last night. So nice to see a couple who love and respect one another. I'm sure your husband would not degrade you by offering you for a biker bikini contest, or send you into a war zone while he goes on Leno.

Michelle is just lovely, elegant and eloquent! She will be a wonderful First Lady – one we can all be so proud of.

what did anybody think obam-robot would say about his stepford wife.
axelrod keep writing those bland speeches.

hope&change? what exactly does that mean?

vic nashville,Tn August 26th, 2008 2:06 pm ET
That is Obama’s weak point

Well Vic, if Michelle is Obama's weak point then I guess the Republican's don't have a chance do they?

Much Better Than Mccains Wife Could Ever Do Im Sure!

"Yeah, I'll bet she did make you proud Obama. Sounded a lot like your speeches, long on change, change, change and very short on specifics about how you intend to make the changes. Chip off the old block Obama!"
——————————————————————–

Nope. Not even close. Try again after you've heard the speech. Also, just because Rush or Hannity, or O'Reilly says it, doesn't make it true.

If you didn't like the speech, fine, but at least try to charicterize it with even a hint of accuracy.

Great speech. She showed how they're the new model of the All-American family for the 21st century. I really believe this is a speech that we'll look back upon as a turning point in our society.

No Debby—that is what is known as an "aside". CNN chose to make it a headline.

Presidents should be elected on many things: intelligence, ability, and judgment being key. Therefore, Obama is the choice.

Very impressed, was I.

From yesterdays speech I got to know about Barack's basketball skills, dating skills and his parental skills. All very useful skills but not the ones you need to be the Commander in Chief!!

Can we ever hear anything that matters from the Obama campaign?
The speeches from Michelle and Teddy were part of an emotional blackmail campaign.

I am also amazed how the kids Sasha and Malia were coached to act on the stage. Too bad they ended up overacting!!

The speech was phenonemal!!! Michelle Obama is a great example to ALL women everywhere!!! The Republicans are going to try and spin this to their advantage, and that is just horrible. Even with Ms Leslie Sanchez making the comment that Michelle had on a cocktail dress? Such an illiterate comment coming from someone that is suppose to have some kind of sense. I mean she can't even be proud of the speech. My next question to the Republicans, are they going to let Cindy McCain do a speech? I would be very interested in seeing that from her, instead of her standing by his side as a made up Barbie Doll!!! The Obamas are the true example of what an American family should be!!!

Obama/Biden 08/12

You're right John, it's tough to talk about a subject that he has no knowledge of.

Michelle Obama it was great, I was in tears, beautiful beautiful speech. That is I want for a First Lady for the USA. A job well done.
Obama/Biden

She was more like June Cleaver than Mrs. O. Too scripted

OB can say his wife is CUTE, he said this as a politic shoud do, but is it REALLY true, my fellow countryman?

MIchelle looked really nice and did the best speech of the convention.

I watch Obama,Clinton And McCain. I can make my own mind up.
Then all the press says is, whit america thinks this or that. Where do you get these people you intervey, not once have any of them said what I thank. I am tired of hearing if Omama dose not get elected it will be the white peoples fault or if McCain gets elected it will be due to Hillary suporters. I am a mom, wife and grandmother I find this insaulting.

Michelle was great last night…..it was a great moment.
Anybody who has something negative to say about Michelle is missing the point.She's the reason why obama won Iowa in the first place.She would be a great first Lady.
Mr. Obama has the jugment to lead cause look who he married and selected as His VP.Two great choices.

Obama/Biden'08

No matter what people think of Michelle Obama, she clearly hit a home run last night, knock'n-it right outta the park!

OBAMA/BIDEN '08

YES WE CAN

Good job Michelle!! You did an excellent job and you looked stunning!

Obama/Biden '08!

MICHELLE OBAMA IS A BEAUTIFUL, AND VERY SMART WOMAN. SHE WILL MAKE A GREAT FIRST LADY (ONE OF THE BEST) THAT AMERICA HAS WITNESSED!

OBAMA/BIDEN '08-'12

he thinks she cute? how condescending.

Yeah, I'll bet she did make you proud Obama. Sounded a lot like your speeches, long on change, change, change and very short on specifics about how you intend to make the changes. Chip off the old block Obama!

I guess we should check out the 1990's Harvard Law School grads so we can start selecting Obama's replacement.
Credentials does not always equal ability.

Obama Mama Baby, go home we dont need you.

She is cute and loves her family. I wish her husband had supported Sen. Clinton and gained some experience and ran for president 2012 then I could hav voted for him. I will never vote for a president with out expeperience. My kids voted for Pres. Bush thank goodness they got the picture.

Carol

If the Obamas don't epitomize the American dream, I don't know who does. Michelle and Barack did EXACTLY what our society demands of our young people: work and study hard; be determined; overcome obstacles; give back to your community; raise a successful family; leave your country better off once you leave. Our system is truly in need of work if the other side (GOP) cannot make their own case without attempting to tear down this inspiring family–no matter what your political affiliation may be.

OBAMA FOR 2008 & 2012………….YEPPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

It will be a little harder for McCain to talk about family values, I think.

Excellent speech by Michelle and the introduction by her brother was also an eye opener. We are looking at people who rose from rags to riches by hard work. People who are working now even to help the disadvantaged and give hope to the hopeless. We need a pres who will not back down when he is right and will seek advice where he does not have the knowledge. That person is Barack Obama.
Hanoi Hilton residents need not apply.

I'm a solid supporter of Barack, but I can't help wishing a little that his and michelles roles were reversed.

That Michelle was the political superstar and Barack the unconditionally supporting spouse, with Michelle as our candidate.

Even though I know and will admit that America is not ready to elect a president that is both female AND black. Which is a national shame…

It was great last night but it'll only get better from here. Once the supporters are fired up and the HRC supporters start to come home then we're gonna take the fight to the GOP.

They're already starting to get increasingly desperate. Their 'turncoat' delegate will be discarded right after she loses political mileage.

What a man he even compliments her in public. What a couple. But she knocked it out of the box wat to go .

here we go again an obama makes a speech and cnn doesn't hear a word she said. obama always keeps his word, always does what he says he's going to do. and is treats people with respect and discretion. if as you say you want the truth, no bias, no bull,have one of your comentators take a run at those statements check under public funding, nafta, ect grandmother, hillary and mccain, ect.

Michelle speaks alot about Obama and his character…she shows us that Obama is not afraid of strong women, that he does not, like some, have a step ford wife who tags along like a well trained puppy. She shows us that Obama will be committed to woman's rights, to better education, to the safety of this Nation and our position in the world…this husband and father will be a great POTUS..for not only his family but for all of our families. I was so proud of her last night, after the vicious attacks on her by Mccain/Bush and the RNC…she is still graceful and unaffected. the RNC/McCain/Bush have done NOTHING but attack the Obama's yet they stay strong…what a wonderful quality for our first family…McCain keeps whining about forgetting how many houses he has, every time Obama talks about the issues Mccain talks about being a war "hero"-even if he has to steal someone else's story to make it sound good…No Draft No McCain/Bush!

Debby, the rock star statements are getting old and tired. Try to find something new please.

People are just saying that she looked nice and she did. Good grief.

Nice speech but, just words until put into action!

I'm a Dem. and will vote for Obama, more because of Biden than Obama, and becaue this country will not survive another Republican Dictatorship.

Name one honest politician, Dem. or Repub. Time's up. There aren't any.

TALK IS CHEAP and that is all we have had in this country for more than a decade.

PUT UP or SHUT UP! Time will tell and we will be watching.

Sen. Barack Obama told an audience Tuesday his wife, Michelle, was "good" in her address Monday night and that her performance "puts a little pressure" on him.

I would say Obama has some big shoes to fill after that speech. She gave the most compelling and emotional speech. She was AWESOME!

The pressure is on Obama!

Debby August 26th, 2008 1:58 pm ET
Yes Barry we are electing people on their looks and rock star status this time around not their ability.

ummmm can u say, Govenor Arnold…..

Michelle sounded just as invigoring as her husband did at the 2004 DNC. Well, maybe not that good, but good. You go girl!

Obama/Biden 08/12

She was brilliant

That is Obama’s weak point

I wonder if Cindy McCain can give a speech on family values, morality and what it means to her to be an American.

There's a point they never touch about child support abuse

The most telling thing was the obvious love the little girls have for their parents and particularly their father.

As any parent knows when kids are 7yo its hard to control what comes out of their mouths when other people are around and in front of 10's of thousands his babe showed love, affection, respect and demonstrated that she is encouraged to speak and communicate with her parents. This child laid to rest any potential doubts I may have had about her father.

FROM THE MOUTH OF BABES

I love this family!!! God Bless the Obama family!!!

Obama 2008!

You're lucky to have a great family, Barack! Get out there, wipe out the Repticilicans and do our nation proud!

Her speech was fake and contrived, a common theme behind the scenes in the Obama camp.

Michelle looked great…wow…what a bonus. But, was Obama in St. Louis or Kansas City? I'm not sure, because he said both cities within a 2 1/2 minute speech?

Let me guess McCNN is trying to imply that calling your wife "cute" is sexist. It is better then what McCain called his wife several years ago which you have still refused to report…

WOW the angry lady has a softer side….I'll bet she can turn on a dime.

You can't fake the genuine affection and values displayed by the Obama family last night. They are a role model family, and those of you who can't see it are just too caught up in your own spite and bigotry.

She was great!!! Watched on C-span and had no "talking heads". That was great too!!! Obama/Biden are great middle America families–no trash, no affairs, no greedy lobbiests, no war, BUT WE will get health care, college, lower taxes, jobs for American, etc.

Yes Barry we are electing people on their looks and rock star status this time around not their ability.

Interesting….it appears that the RNC first rule of thought is to place doubt with the American people on anyone other than their choice. McSame…..and judging from this blog it may have work….let me say that MO gave an inspiring speach and if anyone cannot believe that chooses not hear her words. This country was founded by our for father on dreams and hopes, we need to not forget that. The RNC want all of you to doubt your true beliefs and vote for their guy based upon their fear and not hope. BO will be a great pres because he has vision for this great nation of ours. McSAame only want's to isolate this nation because he belives that no other nation – other than those with oil are worth his time…..

Well done Michelle!!!!!
