Look at that crease! YOU Have Potential…

How are those crisp trouser creases working out for you?

Barack-Obama-Sitting-

Not so well, apparently:

As the midterm campaigns heat up, Democratic candidates are turning to the White House for help and an injection of star power. But it is the first lady, not President Barack Obama, —who in some places is emerging as the more sought-after campaigner. – WSJ

And why not?  Is she not the complete package?  She has the enthusiastic political greeting wave down pat:

So let’s get our game on!

"The First Lady has – and will continue to be – a tremendous asset for Democrats on the ballot in November," said Michael Czin, spokesman for the DNC. "She has a unique ability to make what’s at stake in this election crystal clear.”

As they say: “lead, follow or get out of the way.”

"(He) is going to do everything he can to help the candidates," the official said. "In some cases, that may mean staying out of the way."
