Well, the racist remarks were stupid. I don't imagine Cindy McCain is
out hustling since she doesn't need to either. It's not remarkable
that either woman is not out working 9 to 5. However, Michele Obama
last I heard was on leave from a job with the University of Chicago
(it's hard to campaign while working fulltime).
