A friend of mine e-mailed me two days ago and asked how short this had fallen in meeting standards of journalism. I wrote back and said I couldn’t see evidence of standards at work. The couches on stage were sleek and white. Think Dwell magazine meets Oprah’s confessional talk lair. The tone of the event was as much estrogenfest as it was campaign rally, as Michelle Obama hit the stump in Michigan Wednesday as part of two-day Midwest swing and a revamped strategy designed to soften her image a
