Reintroducing Michelle Obama
Michelle Obama is all over the place today. There must be a concerted effort going on within the campaign or within the media to get her life story out. On their terms.
She's the center of a long piece in the New York Times today and will appear on The View later this morning.
This is interesting. The Obama campaign is filled with multi-taskers who seem to be on top of things, cover all bases, anticipate everything.
It sure helps ones campaign when the mainstream media is in your corner and pulling for you?

Maybe it's good leadership!

It's definitely leadership and know how by someone.

Ron - right on. Good leadership is easy to come by when you have a whole industry (the media) tacitly rooting for you. Democrats conveniently forget that 90% of the media voted Democrat in 2000 and probably will in 2008, just like old times.
Of course the liberal MSM are going to give Michelle Obama a free press make over. They've failed to press Barack's feet to the fire in the same way they've pressed McCain's and Republicans in general. The only reason Barack has gotten any negative press was from Clinton's campaign, and from conservative talk radio pointing out the equivalent things the liberal media point out about conservatives. Who else is going to do it? Certainly not the media.
