Michelle Obama's Speech in Deleware
I just watched Michelle Obama's speech on C-SPAN and it was incredible. What a great speaker! If anyone finds it on video somewhere let me know so I can link to it. Here's a summary from the Daily Kos.

I watched this speech on C-SPAN early this morning before leaving for my high school teaching job in the Rio Grande Valley. What an inspiration! What I did NOT hear--what impressed me the most--was the lack of any personal political attack and the presence of a message that America needs to hear: "To whom much is given, much is expected." (Luke 12:48) Rather than telling voters what the government will give them, Mrs. Obama challenges voters to give back, to be willing to WORK to make this the country we want for ALL our children.
