Watch Michelle Obama's Speech from the DNC
by Andy NeuenschwanderWith the Democratic National Convention under way, First Lady Michelle Obama took the stage Tuesday night to deliver her big speech. The result: an outpouring of reactions (mostly positive) on Twitter.
In fact, the First Lady's speech generated more Twitter traffic than any of the speakers at the Republican National Convention, including Mitt Romney himself. That begs the question: do liberals use Twitter more, or was Michelle Obama's speech just that good?
In terms of topics, the First Lady's speech was similar to that of Ann Romney: both women spoke of their first dates with their husbands, their family life, and their struggles to make ends meet back in college (though, if you don't mind me being a bit partisan here, I'm more inclined to believe Michelle on the whole poverty in college thing than Ann).
But Mrs. Obama's speech seems to have connected with viewers in a more profound way, at least with those who are active on social media. Chances are pretty good that there's someone on your Facebook feed with a quote from the speech up.
