First lady Michelle Obama’s captivating speech at the Democratic National Convention was so electrifying that even conservative news outlets and blogs hailed Mrs. O performance as “masterful.” Conservative newspaper The Wall Street Journal lauded the mom-in-chief while devoting an entire story to her dress and the African American fashionista, Tracy Reese, who designed the dress.
Even though the majority of the respondents to Obama’s speech were women, some men anotated their thoughts via Twitter.
Legendary movie critic Roger Ebert, for example, could scarcely contain himself when he posted,
Michelle’s speech “one of the finest ever given at an American political convention.” Key word: Love. bit.ly/NRtWFW

Cedric the Entertainer completely concurred with Ebert when he typed out,
The Queen @michelleobama Ripped!! The DNC convention tonite, I believe that’s the same spot we taped Kings of Comedy!#I‘mjusysay’n
