Michelle and Hillary, BFFs

By Baxter

We appreciate Senator Obama's comments on "Good Morning, America" today. Discussing the latest anti-Michelle Obama campaign ad by the Tennessee Republican Party, he warned the GOP to "lay off my wife."

But, alas. We are completely familiar with the substance (or lack thereof) of political catfights. And while we think that it's good that Senator Obama put the despicable, Rove-inspired Republican attack machine on notice, we harbor no illusions that they'll cease and desist.

So we have a suggestion for Mrs. Obama: Have a chat with Hillary Rodham Clinton.

Senator Clinton is uniquely qualified to advise you on how to withstand the anti-American, below-the-belt tactics that the Republicans were so good at in the 90s — and to which they're resorting in desperation today. In fact, she can help you not only withstand them, but transcend them.

Naturally, we hope that Senator Clinton will be your husband's running mate. But at the very least, she should be your New Best Friend.
