Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

President Barack Obama is taking his popular wife with him to three campaign stops in the pivotal swing state of Ohio Sunday, but a new Associated Press Poll shows that may be too little, too late with just over two weeks remaining before critical congressional elections.
The survey found that the coalition of voters that swept Obama into the White House just two years ago — aching for change after the eight-year presidency of Republican George W. Bush — has crumbled.

The Associated Press-Knowledge Networks survey found that one-fourth of those who voted for Obama two years ago are defecting to the Republicans or considering voting against the party in power in the Nov. 2 election. Many in that number say their switch is more a symbol of anger at the Democrats than a vote in support of the Republicans.
Significantly and in a sign of fundamental voter dissatisfaction with both parties, just as many people who backed Republican presidential nominee John McCain are either supporting Democrats now or still considering how to vote.
The problem for Democrats is that just half of Obama's supporters in the 2008 race say they definitely will show up to vote on Nov. 2, according to the poll. At the same time, the poll found that two-thirds of McCain supporters say they are certain to vote.

To find out how the electorate's political views have changed since the 2008 election, the AP and Knowledge Networks re-interviewed the same 1,254 people who were part of a random sample of Americans surveyed up to 11 times throughout the 2008 campaign by the two organizations and Yahoo News. The recent interviews occurred Sept. 17 to Oct. 7.

Baraq’s Toxic Coattails
(love the sound of that phrase)
Her personality is even uglier than the jackass.

The strategy should be to set the bar as high as possible to reap the full benefit of this political momentum.
On the table should be a consideration of the repeal of 16th & 17th Amendments, eliminating the Department of Education, the EPA, and as many others as can be rationally discussed.
That's just it. They're only claims. MOchelle is only (marginally) popular among the hard-core left and liberal Democrat blacks.
She's graceless, tasteless, tactless, and mean. If a picture is worth a thousand words, then millions of horrifically damning 'words' have already been said about this awful woman.
What other First Lady have you ever seen with a permanent 10,000 kilowatt scowl? That alone, says everything about her.
That's the key right there.
It is my understanding it is pretty bad.
Here.
He has two wives?
There is complete, unedited, naked hatred in that glare.
How disgusting that this woman in the position of First Lady refuses to be polite when representing our country. Laura Bush always put our country first whether she felt like it or not. She had class. This woman has no class. She insulted the Queen too,when in Britain.
She is a disgrace to American black people. I'm sorry, our good black citizens must be dissappointed and embarassed by this behaviour of our first black First Lady.
Well, they are the only ones PBO has got left of his coaliton. Everyone else has either gone tea party conservative, planning to vote straight conservative GOP, indy, or are too discouraged to even bother to vote.
The media, aware that Obama is an abject failure, is grasping for any lifeline available. They think it is his wife; however, no matter how popular they try to make her, she is still damaged goods.
Yes, and I’m also sick of how the MSM is constantly swooning over how glamorous she is. Just like Venus Williams after a million dollar makeover, she still looks like something your hound dog dragged in.
Let us hope this trend continues
I am stunned by all the media outlets that treat the Wookie like she is fashionable and all that. How can they even choke out a lie like that?
It’s all politics of course.
lol
Once they win they’ll be trying to kill each other
First ladies, on a very generic basis, are often “popular”, in that they’re not considered part of the political stuff going on with their presidential husbands.
If Moochelle were to be compared to other first ladies, I imagine, she’d be waaaaay down on the list.
Just a hunch.
Who are the BB’ers?
