Michelle Obama To Meet With Military Spouses In Virginia

The Obama campaign announces that Michelle Obama will hold a round-table discussion with military spouses on Wednesday.

The campaign is also launching "Blue Star Families for Obama," which it's billing as "a national military families council" that will keep the Obamas up to speed on issues facing military families and coordinate campaign events with them around the country.

It's a sign of a concerted push-back against the McCain campaign's efforts to "create a narrative" (still our favorite reigning euphemism) of Obama as indifferent to and insufficiently respectful of the military.
