Because she's at home taking care of her kids. Something Sarah Palin and Mother Spears should have done a little more of.

oh I see, sooo monday through wed was okay and then Today is okay to hit the campaign trail ,but 9/11 was a day she needed to all of a sudden be a mom?

Things that make you go hmmmm..... The campaign says she was back with the kids because school just started, yet she was in Indiana & Ohio this week campaigning....


Some readers have asked me why it was that Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., was without spouse at the 9/11 commemoration ceremony today in New York City.

After all, they point out, Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., was accompanied by his wife Cindy.

Where was Michelle?

The Obama campaign responds that Michelle was back in Chicago with her daughters Malia, 10, and Sasha, 7, since this is the first week of school.


The McCain kids, incidentally, have all graduated from high school (some long ago) with the exception of Bridget, who's 16.

Political Punch

Maybe because her children probably started school about a week ago and it is a school day. You guys would harp on her for taking her kids out of school!
Maybe she is trying to keep things normal for them. If you haven't noticed she hasn't been on the campaign trail for the last week or so probably do to this reason. Think about it!

Again, Obama doesn't need his wife to follow him around to make sure he takes all of his medications. He's a much younger man than McCain.

You're right. Obama can cut up and snort the cocaine on his own.

Or maybe him and George W can do it together and CIndy can bring the painkillers. Who cares most college students experiment!
