KEENE--Michelle Obama told college students that Barack Obama's biography will result in a president who "gets it" and relates to middle-class families.
"Don't we deserve policies that reflect reality, don't we deserve a leader that gets it," Michelle Obama said a rally for college students at Keene State College.
Obama added, "Don't we want someone in the White House with the perspective of someone who understands the struggles of single-parent families and working-class families."
Obama also told students that they can register to vote and make a difference in the election.
"You can tell a lot about someone by the company he keeps and Barack Obama keeps some great company," U. S. Rep. Paul Hodes (D-Concord) said about Michelle Obama.
After the rally the Keene State College Democrats organized a march down Main Street and registered voters at the town hall.

Quote of the Day
"Last June we were promised by the Republican National Committee and McCain HQ's that we would be consulted on campaign strategy in New Hampshire. I guess that promise was as empty as the head of the person responsible for creating political strategy in New Hampshire. What can we expect next -- phone jamming calls on election day? Thanks guys."

Gets what?
Lets see... he has little legislative experience to examine so lets look at his judgement. His political mentor William Ayers is an unrepentant domestic terrorist, his biggest financial backer Tony Rezko is a corrupt felon and his pastor is a hate-spewing extremist. Obama is designated as the most liberal Senator and is one of the highest recipients of donations from corrupt Freddie Mac/Fannie May influence peddlers.
While in local Chicago politics he voted "present" over 100 times apparently to avoid going on the record on controversial bills, he has never bucked his party or reached across the aisle, and was in the US Senate for only 6 months before he arrogantly thought he was ready to become president.
None of this matters because the media has selected him as our next president and has become his main cheerleader and defender. Obama's organization ACORN is in the process of committing massive nationwide voter fraud yet no one in the media will cover it. Feminists attack Palin saying should be home in the kitchen rather than running for office, and the list goes on and on. I'm afraid Democracy is now dead and we have entered the era of media-selected political leadership.
Does this woman ever smile?
