In speeches designed to fire up Democrats to vote in midterm elections, President Obama has at times described voters in his party as having a "congenital defect." Wednesday, First Lady Michelle Obama suggested the problem might just be that they're sleepy.
Mrs. Obama spoke at a rally in Philadelphia for the Democratic candidate for governor of Pennsylvania, Tom Wolf. In an effort to boost turnout in November, the first lady told the crowd that she runs across voters "who are like, no, I ain’t going to vote, or I couldn’t wake up." But she stressed that every vote matters:
So this is where -- when I find people who are like, no, I ain’t going to vote, or I couldn’t wake up, or it doesn’t matter, or why -- 20 votes decided who your Governor was in 2010, and it could decide who the Governor is this time.
The first lady wasn't finished with the sleepy-voter theme. Later in her remarks, she expanded on the idea:
You know your 20 people. You know the people in your neighborhood, in your church, in your family who aren’t focused. And you can’t leave anybody behind.
That nephew you know who sleeps -- get him up. Wake him up. (Laughter.) Young people, you all know folks who aren’t paying attention. Your classmates, your dorm mates -- wake them up, get them out.

I bet they get up in time to get them welfare dollars.
Sorry Mooochelle, we don't want your kind of voters to vote once - let alone multiple times like the dumbocrat party wants to allow!
"The guy is a nut case and was causing a public disturbance. He should have been thrown in jail. If you felt differently last night, why didn't you stand up for him tough guy?"
Get a grip you stupid fool. If you think someone merely holding up a sign is causing a disturbance then you need to get out and see how it works in the real world. You don't know what a disturbance is you nutjob! Was he talking in a loud voice over the candidates or others on stage speaking? That's a disturbance Einstein! Thrown in jail for holding up a sign? Where did you get your law degree Dershowitz?
If I had been there I would have loved to stand up for him, but my fear of being touched by putrid fat ass Lake would have prevented me from intervening.
We are all sleepy because we are tired of workimg those long hours for less money WHILE OUR TAXES ARE GOING UP TO PAY FOR THOSE LAVISH VACATIONS, MOOCHELLE!
