NATIONAL: "First Lady In Control Of Building Her Image: Focus Is Turned to Domestic Life," by Rachel L. Swarns, New York Times, 25 April 2009.

Cousin of mine helped Michelle get into her first job in the legal field in Chicago, and so she's familiar with both. Like most people who can make that claim in the before time, my cousin says it's no contest on the sheer brainpower: it's Michelle hands-down.

It'll be interesting to watch her as First Lady and beyond. There's a reason why she's polling about 85%. She knows what she's doing.
