White House press secretary Robert Gibbs responds to an inquiry that Michelle Obama was campaigning inside a polling place while she was early voting.

"She was telling me how important it was to vote to keep her husband’s agenda going," a man claimed First Lady Michelle Obama told him inside a polling place.

"She's a remarkable campaigner," Gibbs said.

Its not wrong if they do it. Nor is it illegal when a celebrity does it.

She has no shame-and it is unlikely she will get into any trouble On the other hand the electrician may get into some hot water

Gibbs: Hey it's only illegal when THEY do it!

[samtheman]

So basically he admitted it. She’s a great campaigner and she was campaigning inside a polling place.

Fry her d*mn *ss!

(Whew! That would make a whole lot of stink, wouldn’t it?)

[Salvey]

She can do it with impunity, as she has the shield of protective melanin going for her.

President Gibbs is just trying not to be a racist.

Chicago? Mr. Dennis Campbell, may be a marked man as far a democrats are concerned. I would want witness protection plan, from the potential hostility of the Obama people. I am glad I don’t live in Chicago.

She is just trying to take attention away from that other BIG thing in the pic!

[Gator113]

This is settled law... she’s not White.

Maybe it’s an external device instead of getting her stomach stapled?

Since Michelle was there simply as a voter, and not a poll watcher, poll officer, or political party officer or candidate, she was probably quite free to say whatever she wished ~ just like I do when we are standing there as a family with our friends, in line, going in to vote a straight Republican ticket.

We have to verify things to make sure no one is tricked by the Democrats.

Too many people forget that she's not just a giant levitating Wookie, she's also a voter ~ and as I always say, as I'm sure she does as well, VOTE EARLY AND OFTEN!
