Why haven't we heard more from Michelle? Now that she is the star on opening night
of the convention, I'm wanting to see more of her.


I think that the more we see of Michelle, the better for Barack's campaign.


I think we are saving her serious campaigning for after the convention.


I just think the more we see of Michelle, the more America will fall in love with Barack (not that he's not charming himself, just that the team makes it even better).

1. Edited to add... why does it seem like we hear more about Cindy "heiress" McCain than Michelle O?
the media shows Cindy in glowing reports, yet they don't talk about Michelle.

I'm sick of it.


America needs to see the difference between the heiress and the "next first Lady".

2. I think the coverage of Michelle has improved lately.
Her appearance on The View went over very well and she is on a stunning cover of Essence magazine this month.

One reason we might see Cindy more is that she is joined at McCain's hip on the campaign trail, while Michelle tries to make day-trip appearances so she can be at home with the girls in the evening. She and Barack don't make as many joint appearances.

4. I think you might be right, she is taking care of their young children.
Which I really like.

3. The convention will be a great opportunity for her to re-introduce herself.

5. True, she will probably stay low profile till then to get maximum benefit.
I just want to see her more so America can see how wonderful she is.
