An interesting phenomena is afoot. During the primary and run up to the election, the MSM constantly asked the question was Michelle Obama too angry, too black, not black enough, etc? Guess what, she is incredibly popular. This article in the Wapo makes out that she used to be barely tolerated but now she is loved. I am not sure that she was ever so unpopular, but I do grant that she is extremely well liked, no thanks to the MSM. Remember the flap over whether or not she should wear sleeveless dresses? The end result of that idiotic press meme is that now everybody want Michelle arms. Remember when she was portrayed as an Angela Davis wannabe? Turns out, most people's point of reference is Claire Huxtable not Angela D. Remember when she was excoriated for saying that for the first time she was proud of her country (not the exact quote, but how it was reported)... After having endured eight years of having a buffoon and a master criminal in the White House, those words might have some relevance to many. What I wonder, is has the MSM lost its ability to create a lasting meme? After a fair amount of pounding in the press Barack has high approval ratings, while Congress/Wall Street/Auto Industry see their approval steadily sinking. Poor Al Gore, even though he invented the internets, they came too late to save him.
