no teleprompter, just beautiful, convincing words. she is by far the most compelling female speaker on the democratic side.

Live right now.

3. Her name is Michelle. Didn't we stop calling women by their husband's name a while back? nt.

8. that was intentional - for precisely the reason you responded.
I do agree. she is a professional, extremely bright, well-regarded in the hospital-health care industry, and a hell of a speaker. and she is entitled to use her own name.

and she just gave one KICK ASS oration!

24. You think it's fun to bait women with sexism? Charming. Somehow, I think you meant it.

26. LOL, that is hillarious.
Look, there are 30% of americans who have not even heard of Barack Obama, and know not that he is a US Senator from Illinois. (some may not even be able to find Illinois on a map) There is a larger percentage that have not heard of Michelle Obama, etc. etc.

This faux outrage, seen more and more often coming from Hillary supporters, who would even claim that my growing a beard is sexist, is truly amazing. and entertaining. please, keep it up. I need a good laugh.

30. My outrage is not fake.
I only clicked on the thread to see how many people said what I thought.
"Hey, doesn't this woman have her own name?"

What sexist bullshit.

13. when she
follows the voice instructor's instructions,
stays on message, on issues she obviously knows well,
provides a roadmap for the future,
and
does not start attacking anyone, nor playing defense

I can agree that she, too, is a compelling speaker. but Michelle is better.

31. I suspect you did not hear her today.
In that case, You missed out on a treat. Hillary could take lessons from her.

15. Folks, I wish I added a polll Michelle vs. Condi.
Condi is shallow, inept, and unable to deal with a serious, factual attack. And she is not a very compelling speaker.

Michelle is the bomb. in a good, no, great, sense.

28. She's a really great speaker, isn't she? Funny, too.
The references to cousin Dick Cheney are hysterical.
