Isn't she lovely?

In her prime-time speech Monday, Michelle Obama foiled her harshest detractors and perhaps even won over Middle America.

    Totally irrelevent commentary, but I gotta say it....

    OK, so I know this post will be ridiculed, but I can't help it.

    I am so excited to think that my president and his wife are still madly in love with each other, still flirt, still make eyes at each other in ways that everybody can see comes from deep love and understanding. They clearly challenge each other, match each others' intellect, compassion, ambition and style.

    Wouldn't it be nice to have a sexy couple in the white house? (Both of em, not just the man, like the Clintons).
