Honestly, I think Michelle Obama is a huge asset to Sen. Obama because she breaks stereotypes. The stereotypical thought is that someone like Sen. Obama would be married to somebody who is light-skinned or non-AfAm.
Chicago Sun-Times columnist, Mary Mitchell, as I recall, did speak to this in one of her articles. I think Mrs. Obama gives a great image boost for Sen. Obama because of the anxiety about successful AfAm men dating/mating outside the race.
