Rips Trump for saying tax-dodging makes him "smart", rooting for housing crisis, insulting women. http://www.nbcphiladelphia.com/news/politics/Hillary-Clinton-Michelle-Obama-Mike-Pence-Donald-Trump-Pennsylvania-395074531.html
First lady Michelle Obama warned against voting for someone who "has no chance to win" the presidential election, calling a vote for third-party candidates "a vote for Hillary's opponent."
Speaking at a rally at La Salle University's Tom Gola Arena in Philadelphia, the first lady also said that Americans who don't vote at all, risk putting Donald Trump in the White House.
"Elections aren't just about who votes, it's also about who doesn't vote," Obama said.
She never mentioned Trump by name during her nearly 30-minute speech, but criticized "Clinton's opponent" for his attack on women, immigrants, as well as the Republican nominee's temperament.
"A president just cant pop off or lash out irrationally. We need an adult in the White House, Obama said, noting that when Clinton "gets knocked down, she doesn't complain. She doesn't cry foul."

I love all that Michelle is doing to help Hillary. She has a strong voice and knows how to use it.
Thanks, bigtree.
