Please refer to the comments about personal life not being the same as public life. Controlling a spouse in the campaign for public office says nothing about how the person maintains their private life, or their views on gender or use of power in personal relationships. It does say something about the spouses willingness or unwillingness to be supportive, as well as the candidates ability to be persuasive. You don't suppose that Hillary took a whip to Bill do you?? No, she most likely convinced him that he was hurting her, and that he needed to knock it off. If Barack can't convince his wife to do the right thing how is he going to convince other world leaders of anything, especially after Bush has done all of the damage he has done??
McCain will have a feast on Barack by way of his wife if he does not wise up soon. Barack is a great politician, but he has a blind spot when it comes to his wife. This is forgivable, but he must adjust.
Stuff on a stick. I love it. Michelle kicks ass, in front of thousands who show up to see her do it in person, on a pretty regular basis. She isn't hurting anything, save perhaps the feelings of some old fashioned fools, Republicans, and Clinton supporters. To Barack; she is very clearly an asset. From where I'm sitting, I'd say he did very well in choosing her.
