“When you’re named Barack Obama, you are the underdog,” Michelle Obama tells Jay Leno in this two-part clip from her appearance on Monday’s “Tonight Show,” during which she was careful to point out that she was wearing a “J. Crew ensemble.”

Now this is a real lady, and she is wearing her own clothes…intelligent, nice, able to have a conversation.  I too would love to see her debate palin, who by the way is NOT as classy looking as Michelle. Michelle will make a wonderful first lady totally unlike the drug fetching laura bush, the silly anorexic, socialite wannabe nancy reagan, and the scary barbara bush.

Michelle Obama is a class act.  She’s incredibly intelligent, and I would love to see her as our First Lady for the next eight years.  Palin has never actually “debated” at all in this election. She didn’t really “debate” Joe Biden.  She just rolled out the robotic talking points of the Repub rightwingers, tried to be Miss Cutsie Pie, and winked a great deal.  The woman isn’t as smart as a third grader.  She’s a prime example of how important it is to demand intelligence and seriousness in our political leaders.  We’re the ones who are at fault if she and McCain are elected.

So get out there and work for Obama…if you’ve not voted yet, DO SO!  AND VOTE OBAMA AS THOUGH YOUR ENTIRE FUTURE DEPENDS ON IT.  I AM CONVINCED THAT OUR NATION’S FUTURE DOES!

I don’t think “moose turd” would DEBATE Michelle Obama.Michelle is a LADY and I believe “moose turd” would revert to her mean spirited,small minded,back woods hick mentality….“moose turd” KNOWS WHEN SHE IS OUT CLASSED….

It would be really nice to see Michelle Obama and Sarah Palin in a debate on the issues.
