     COMMENTS: Totally Modern Michelle

A pair of First Ladies--the occupant Michelle Obama and her Democratic predecessor, the current Secretary of State--met to honor a global collection of women's rights activists at the State Department. NBC assigned diplomatic correspondent Andrea Mitchell to the ceremonies. Mitchell decided to tell us nothing about women's rights, concentrating on a contrast between Hillary and Michelle instead. Back in the day, Rodham Clinton took on healthcare, Mitchell reminded us. Last week when Barack Obama tackled the same topic, his wife "was serving up food at a soup kitchen around town." Nevertheless the current First Lady gets high marks for style from Mitchell: "Totally modern when it comes to fashion and being fit!"
