How do you define "effectiveness" in a first lady? That has been my point all along. Whether she has been a good senator or not is one thing, but what does an "effective" first lady do? I honestly can't see how this helps her on the campaign trail.

I still say it's a mistake to nominate her. She'll do for the wingers what bu$h has done for us: galvanize the opposition. It's probably misogynistic on some level, but so what? These people (The Mr. Jesus people as Borat would say) will get whipped into a frenzy by the Dobsons and the Hannitys of the world. It may also happen with Gore or Obama or anybody else, but with Hillary it's guaranteed to happen. And she loses as a result.
