Michele Obama: "We're not doing this again."
Declared that her husband would not be running for president again. What she says goes.

and another Michele greatest hit "if you can't run your own house how can you run the white house"

Obnoxious lady.

15. No, NY Times today, Maureen Dowd -Billary
I think it describes well the Bill and Hillary political relationship. Now, if Bill goes away and lets Hillary win or lose on her own, the name may be less applicable, but I really don't see that happening.

25. Why does Billary bother you so much?
Doesn't it describe the situation well? If I supported her, I'd take it as the reality of their lives' goal, working closely together for political success.

16. well I heard both of those statements before and it was stupid
Edited on Sun Feb-03-08 06:00 PM by BenDavid
then as it is writing them again.....oh and maybe Michelle could tell us in her new job making over 200,000 a year how some of her income comes from Wal-Mart indirectly....You know the one that obama in a negative way said to HRC, " you were on the board of Wal-Mart".....I would if I were as weathly as oh say Warren Buffet make me an ad, and on it have obama repeating that saying and then pose the question....Why are you mad at people for shopping at Wal-Mart? Is there a personal reason you have to the employees of Wal-Mart? After each question play that clip.....

17. A little upset that she's derailing the Hillary fake "suggest
Obama will be VP" so people will vote for me thinking they will get both of us?

You should check out Maria Shriver on CSPAN!

18. I don't think she was talking about Hillary when she made that
comment. When I initially heard that she said it, I thought it was directed at Hillary. Then I looked it up and read it in context and it was clear that she wasn't. However, it would be easy to interpet it that way if one was so inclined. Much like HIllary's LBJ/MLK comment. Deliberate misinterpetation of words.

20. It was against Guiliani
Edited on Sun Feb-03-08 06:06 PM by tammywammy
It makes a whole lot of sense to be against him. He's the one with the wife and mistress when he was mayor.

27. No... she was actually talking about herself and how hard it is
to keep everyone on schedule etc... She told Barak that before they committed to this they would have to get their house in order.

I was all set to be offended when I heard she said that. I read it here on DU, and there was no context for the quote. So before I got angry, I googled :)

30. Thanks
I remember at the time it wasn't a big deal to me, once in context. But you know, this is DU and there's always outrage against something. LOL.

21. Have y'all ever noticed that when someone moralizes on marriage...
Edited on Sun Feb-03-08 06:06 PM by Maddy McCall
the failures in that person's marriage will eventually make the headlines?

David Vitter
Henry Hyde
Bob Barr

and sooo many more.

24. I saw an interview
where she really did not seem happy about all that this campaigning has brought...and she also made the implication that she wouldn't do it again.

What will she do if he is in the White House and she discovers that her career really will have to take a back seat for a few years...and it will still be hard after the campaigning is over? Leave him? :shrug:

29. I find her very educated and very personable
And Honestly she is sort of hawt!

We get the picture btw...You hate Obama
Not all of us do and threads like these do not help your candidate or convert anyone.
All it does is add really shitty vibes to this place.

35. You can be sure that he'll keep running until he becomes president.
He's driven by personal ambition. I'd also lay money on Michele running for office. Ironically, she's very much like Hillary, only unlike Hillary the MSM is leaving her alone, probably because she's an African American.

37. I liked when she didn't play the race card when she exhorted black
women to vote because it was black people's "time..." Not everyone who has suffered in this damned country time?
