ABC confirms Ann Romney, wife of Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney, will be
filling in as guest anchor for Robin Roberts on Good Morning America during the 8 AM hour on October 10. She joins the list of other co-hosts, including Steven Colbert, the cast of Modern Family and Jessica Simpson, who have filled in for Roberts since she went on medical leave at the end of August. Network sources say GMA producers are also in talks with First Lady Michelle Obama to fill in for Roberts, but there is no time in her schedule right now.


With co-hosts Cookie Monster and Snuffalupagus.
They need the work.
Anyone but Elmo…I hate Elmo
I find this completely outrageous. The husband is running for President – we used to have “equal time” constraints. I don’t care what party this is — it’s stupid and inappropriate for the “wives” to be used like this. Well, what else is new? Should she appear on Sesame Street?
Since she’s a spokesperson for a presidential campaign, this amounts to a free hours-long campaign ad. ABC should cancel the gig and issue an apology to the public for its indefensible misconduct.
Benten32 and Rob J obviously missed all of the outrageouly unprofessional big wet kisses that Barbara Walters and her coven on “The View” have given Barack and Michelle this entire campaign cycle….and Clinton aide George Stephanopoulos’s constant boosterism for Obama and the Dems….and in fact the massive and egregious mainstream media bias in favor of all things Democratic. Ann Romney’s GMA appearance is a fleetingly rare gesture of even-handedness. Hysterically funny that you would find it objectionable. But I guess, like poor Obama last night, you’re unaccustomed to even a whiff of pushback.
What he said. ABC is not even making a pretense of having any balance.
And, anyway unlike Ann Romney, Michelle Obama actually HAS a job.
What job would that be, exactly?
