Michelle Obama in March:

[Michelle] Obama begins with a broad assessment of life in America in 2008, and life is not good: we’re a divided country, we’re a country that is “just downright mean,” we are “guided by fear,” we’re a nation of cynics, sloths, and complacents. “We have become a nation of struggling folks who are barely making it every day,” she said, as heads bobbed in the pews. “Folks are just jammed up, and it’s gotten worse over my lifetime. And, doggone it, I’m young. Forty-four!”

Michelle Obama in July:

The overwhelming reality that has gotten us to this point and will help get us hopefully as a nation to a new point is the reality that America is full of decent people who are really tired of division and back-biting. Folks are struggling. And that struggle far outweighs their fears and their skepticism. And there will always be people who are not ready. But look at where we are.

The reversal bug is spreading through the Obama clan at lightning speed.
