M'Obama pledges gains for 'mos (Bama-Wisc)
Michelle Obama last night spoke to Democratic National Committee's Gay and Lesbian Leadership Council at the group's NYC gala, pledging that if elected, her husband will fight against discrimination in all its counterproductive forms:

In a related story: We hear that Cindy McCain will today give a speech, wherein she'll support her husband's pro-"Don't Ask Don't Tell," pro-state-level marriage bans, anti-hate crimes legislation, anti-ENDA stances, yet will vow to stop him whenever he wants to fast forward through the parts of "Ugly Betty" that he deems too gay. So that's something!
**PFLAG's Steve Ralls has some thoughts on Micchelle's speech. He posts them at HuffPo:

Michelle Obama's speech brought a standing ovation from the crowd of about 200 donors, who raised about $1.3 million, organizers said.
