While ABC anchor Charles Gibson was on the road in Washington for the tribute to his late colleague John McWethy, CBS' anchor Katie Couric aired the first half of her two-part sitdown with Michelle Obama in Chicago. Couric called it an Exclusive even though the 44-year-old would-be First Lady has hardly been shy about press availability. She sat down with ABC's Deborah Roberts (embargoed link) just last week and NBC's Janet Shamlian last year. Anyway Couric questioned Michelle in her capacity as Barack's surrogate rather than about her in her own right. Is Obama too messianic? Inexperienced? Unschooled in foreign policy? Unreassuring? Humble enough? "Do you ever look at your husband and does he ever look at you and do you say: 'Can you believe this!'?" "Yes, yes. It is probably once a week now. Yes, absolutely. This is a trip!"
