No, I wasn't surprised at her feelings--I actually share them. Also, she isn't the first wife of a politician not to share her spouse's enthusiasm. Here in Vt, Howard Dean's wife, when he was Governor, remained in Burlington and carried on her medical practice. I wouldn't know the woman if I tripped over her. I'm not sure that Melania Trump is very thrilled at her position either--the expectations of the public of a person who did not seek the position are outrageous. Mamie Eisenhower wasn't a fan, nor was Patricia Nixon. So, Michelle is and was in good company
