...But from her days on the campaign trail to her residency in the White House, Obama’s favorability rating has been in flux, from a low of 48 percent in June 2008 to a peak of 72 percent last March to a slide to 61 percent in a recent Gallup Poll.

That 11-point stumble – some might call it a tumble – seems at odds with the focus of a White House publicity team that is carefully crafting her image and building a decidedly current, wholesome, upbeat brand. But while Obama has broadened the reach of her office, White House observers say that the role and projects she has embraced so far are seen by some as disappointingly traditional. ...

My briefly dyslexic eyes let me see the title as " Michelle Obama's poll slide".

Eye bleach needed for the pole dancing picture it induced.

I could have sworn it was another outfit (equally hideous tho), was this really photoshopped with Snug's bathroom rug?

Look at the poker face on the one that actually drew the duty, though.  I wouldn't want to be sitting across the table from him in Vegas.

He's better than I am. I'd be making faces or something behind her.

Didn't see it, but heard on the radio that she was yukking it up at the Tomb. If so...  :bird:

I'm trying figure out where this pic was taken.  Is that Laura Bush next to her?  Surely she wouldn't have dressed that way for the memorial service at Fort Hood , would she?

Would SanFran Nan be caught wearing something that looks like a Navy Pea Coat?  The hair is also wrong for the way Bela styles hers.

Nancy Horst, whoever the hell that is.

Thank you.  Still it seems inappropriate to wear such colors at a somber ceremony.

No problem, but maybe I should have read the caption all the way.

I would assume she's BG Horst's wife...  :doh:
