186. My reaction is a bit different

Thu Oct 11, 2012, 09:15 AM

Oct 2012

I think Ann Romney has put herself in the "line of fire" making her now fair game. Michelle Obama may campaign for Barack, but she always focuses on her husband and what his plans are. To my knowledge she has never said anything in public that was negative. If I were the Democrats I would be tempted to go after her specifically on those comments.
