Michelle Obama On Larry King Live

I was not able to watch Larry King Live last night with Michelle Obama, but thankfully the Internet allows me to watch the video this morning! If you haven't seen it, here it is... Michelle Obama on Larry King Live.



It's amazing at how much more intelligent she sounds when compared to Sarah Palin or Cindy McCain. Cindy McCain looks and sounds like she is on Vicodins and can barely stand up half the time, and Sarah Palin's Canadian accent gets under my skin. But Michelle Obama talks eloquently, and comes of as a warm and friendly person.

According to NY Times political blog, Michelle Obama is turning the other cheek to the sharp attacks on her husband, Senator Barack Obama, from Senator John McCain, his wife, Cindy, and his running mate, Gov. Sarah Palin.
No matter who wins the election, Mrs. Obama said, there should be no hard feelings.

“You can’t tear up the game so much so that, you know, you don’t leave people something to come back to,” she said. “You know, we’re going to need John McCain, we’re going to need Cindy McCain, we’re going to need independents and Republicans working hard to fix this crisis.”

Mrs. Obama also dismissed a suggestion from Mr. King that voters might vote against her husband on racial grounds. She said she did not believe in the so-called Bradley effect, which occurred in 1982, when voters told pollsters they would vote for Tom Bradley, a black man, for governor of California but then did not do so.

“If there was going to be a Bradley effect,” she said, Mr. Obama would not have won the nomination. Besides, she said, the Bradley episode was “several decades ago, and there’s been growth and movement.”

“Now, there will be people who will never vote for Barack Obama,” she said. “But there will be people who will never vote for John McCain either.”

She added: “I just believe that the issues are going to weigh in people’s hearts more so as they go into the voting booths this time around, than anything else.”

When I watch Sarah Palin speak, I almost have to bite my tongue, but I could listen to Michelle Obama go on for an hour and not feel bored... she did a great job on Larry King last night. She showed herself as a true American, and a winner. Not once does she get negative, not once does she lose her tact and charm. She is a class act, and would make a great First Lady. Congrats.

The world is watching and waiting for this great moment in history when America elects Barack Obama for president of the United States!
