OMG, if we elect him he'll totally be in the pocket of that one hospital at the university where he worked and his children go to school! We'll probably end up at war with Northwestern's Feinberg School of Medicine!

Yeah, it's totally shocking that an Illinois Senator would try and get an earmark for the University of Chicago Hospital! I'm sure it's never happened that before that a Senator has tried to get money to a hosptial so they could take care of more sick people. That's just terrible! What's this country coming to!
And I'm sure they negotiated with Michele that they would give her a raise based on a promise by Obama to give them an earmark in the future.
Yet another micro-scandal that will amount to nothing.

Unfortunately, in the name of "civil discourse", it is unlikely that McCain will ever go after him on this. I mean, this is fodder for a very convincing campaign ad because it is the exegesis of the discretionary spending crisis while tying it specifically to Obama and the 'rats.

There's lots more about Michelle that hasn't surfaced yet.
She probably won't be as big a liability to Obambi as Bill is to Hill, but she will be a factor. This is just the tip of the iceberg.
