honesty. Bless her, she is an outstanding person. She has the stature of a modern day Eleanor Roosevelt.

Not just because of the words or even the delivery, but also who delivered it. It is one thing if Romney makes some anecdotal story about someone else paying student loans. It is another thing when Michelle Obama can talk about her own personal experience trying to pay the loans they undertook to get through college, as well as their own experience working in the community.
