Sigh. Seriously, I'm sick of this shit. Michelle Obama talks about keeping their family going during the campaign, and it gets turned into a slam at Hillary Clinton. Meow. Which is a fair conclusion if you only take this part:

"Our view is that if you can't run your own house, you certainly can't run the White House."
Oooh, burn. If you're 10 like Drudge. Or the tons of other stories that picked it out. Except, oops. The rest of the quote goes like this:
"So, so we've adjusted our schedules to make sure that our girls are first, so while he's traveling around, I do day trips. That means I get up in the morning, I get the girls ready, I get them off, I go and do trips, I'm home before bedtime. So the girls know that I was gone somewhere, but they don't care.
