I'm not saying that Cindy McCain is not in the shots with John McCain, I'm saying that if they wanted to hide Michelle Obama she would either be out of sight completely or standing backstage while Barack Obama spoke. I just get tired of people saying sensational things that doesn't add up. She has been perhaps the most visible and for sure the most vocal spouse in the campaign...and yes that includes the past few weeks. If you google the amounts of speeches delivered recently by spouses, it will probably bear that out.

She, I am guessing here without searching it out, is probably going to friendly outlets to do her speaking and interviews. Situations in which she would get softball questions, or people wanting to conduct "girl talk". As far as on the stump conducting speeches outlining policy or discussing the issues I don't think she's doing like she was back during the primaries.

And I haven't seen her at his side for a while.
