Today, Michelle Obama visits Copenhagen in her quest to beat Rio de Janeiro, Tokyo, and Madrid for the 2016 Olympic bid.
She provided fair warning to her rivals when she was seated next to the first lady of Brazil at a dinner a the G2O Summit in Pittsburg, "I adore her," Mrs. Obama said. "And -- but I said, 'You know I'm going to hug you now -- and then I'm going after you in Copenhagen.' And she said, 'You too.'"
This is Mrs. Obama's biggest assignment in the nine months since coming to the White House. Her Monday session with an invited group of reporters at the White House was her first ever press conference as first lady.
Now that's a fierce woman.
