Michelle's convention speech

Michelle could hardly have done better in the biggest speech of her career. She's been on the trail for more than a year, but still gives the impression of being a little realer than the seasoned pols.

Her voice was richly emotional from the start, and she battled tears at the end.

The speech may or may not reshape her image, but it's hard to imagine her having done better.
