They looked so cute dancing.
I’m talking about what many are talking about: President Barack Obama and Michelle Obama taking their first dance.

Along the campaign trail, the two have been so lovey-dovey… making popular the “fist-bump” and just obviously having each other’s back.

Their relationship, or as it’s been portrayed in the media, seems to be solid.

I imagine, friendship is among its core tenant.
It cracks me up when girls say they can’t date their “guy” friends. I say, why not?

After all, if they’re truly friends then those guys hold you up when you need a pep talk, make you laugh, hang out with you when you’re cute and on those less than cute days. In essence, they see you for you… and you allow them to.

The best relationships I’ve had have been built on friendships first.
I think there’s a difference in the evolution of those relationships based on the friendship factor.

I wonder, truly, if President Obama and his First Lady were boyfriend/girlfriend first or friends first?

An NPR blog item leaped out at me today.

Do single women really prefer presidential candidate Barack Obama over John McCain?

Yes, according to Women’s Voices. Women Vote.

Survey findings, according to an article written my Naomi Zeveloff show that, “the group surveyed 1,045 women in 14 battleground states, including Colorado, and found that single women prefer Barack Obama 62 percent to 33 percent. Married women, on the other hand, slightly prefer John McCain at 48 percent to 47 percent. The study also found that, contrary to popular opinion, single women are “just as engaged and interested as married women.”

What do you think?
