Michelle is not exactly Bess Truman or Mamie Eisenhower, little wifey in the kitchen baking toll house cookies. Nobody put Mamie or Bess to task for minimal participation in the political arena. Laura Bush primarily confined her public speaking to uncontroversial areas in which she had some professional expertise: libraries and reading. Michelle Obama has degrees from Ivy League schools. She holds a $300k job. She loves to hear herself giving speeches talking about a “mean” America she finds it difficult to be proud of- unless America makes her first lady. Michelle’s speeches are excellent advertisements for McCain.
If Barack had any political sense, he would inform his wife that for the next 5 1/2 months, her primary duty is to bake 20 dozen toll house cookies daily. If Michelle and Barack can’t stand the political heat from her big mouth, perhaps Michelle should stay in the kitchen. As a McCain supporter, I wish that Michelle would give five speeches daily.
