First Lady Michelle Obama went on Larry King Live last night to talk about her just-launched effort to end childhood obesity — and mostly dodged questions about touchier issues.
Asked about Sarah Palin, the first lady said she didn’t “have a read” on the former Alaska governor. “I mean, I try not to make or set opinions about people that I haven’t had any substantive interaction with.”
I think it’s wonderful to have strong female voices out there. But I don’t know her.
The first lady also backed off King’s question about the tea party movement. “I’m focused on what’s in front of me,” she said. “And right now that’s ending childhood obesity.”
