WOW!!! Michelle Obama was Extraordinarily Superb & Pretty!!!
 
The Michelle Obama speech at the DNC on Monday, August 25, 2008 was just WOW!!!

She was beautiful. I love her "refinement ensembled makeover". She showed her what she is all about and I personally think that she put those silly stereotypes to rest about her. And her edges were DONE!!! And so her daughter's hurr was cutely done!!!

I loved the video with her mother. And the speech from her brother was special.

She made some folks cry... LOL..

She really held it down! I had just read the cover article about her in this month's Ebony so it was a nice one-two dose of the next FLOTUS. :)

I tuned in to the DNC just for her. And on a silly note.....yeah, her hair was DONE! She was rocking the serious stove curler press! LOL

But seriously..she is awersome. Now I know why in the 60's, women fawned all over Jackie O. This is how I feel about Michelle O. :cool:

She was ok.

I thought she was terrific (and she looked beautiful, indeed)! I actually watched with my family (since it was my sister's birthday and we were all together). So many of her comments hit home with us. I will be very pleased to see her as our First Lady.

SHE WAS FANTASTIC

michelle obama did a great job at what she was 'asked' to do. she looked more like a working mom than a politician's wife. she said the right things and did so flawlessly. i couldn't help but feel like last night went under the category of "trying to hard."

I liked Michelle O.'s speech and visual presentation, particularly when the girls came out and Sasha was asking where was her daddy. It was well-imaged and designed to "defang" her, although I have never picked up angry Black woman from her. Not at all.

Her speech just didn't WOW me. Didn't move me. Sorry.

Yep. Just ok to me. I wasn't impressed or moved by her delivery or the content. Very average.

Glad I'm not the only one who feels it was just a speech.

On that note:

I hated when "Isn't She Lovely" started playing and the kids came out. LOL. Then the "hi daddy" and stuff from the kids just seemed so staged. We get the point, geesh....

"Look how cute the kids are...ohhhhhh...he'll be a persistent President because he jokingly says he kept asking Michelle out eventhough she kept saying 'no'...she changed her mind and that's change we can believe in." :rolleyes:

nods
 
eventhough there was a bit of a delay, obama's response to me brought the point home that this was just a speech. his youngest daughter was being well, a kid and he seemed to kinda 'brush' her off to focus more on saying what he had to say.
