Michelle Obama Focuses on Family (Not Feuding) on The View
Originally posted 06/18/2008 01:05PM
Michelle Obama made sure there were no fireworks while making her debut on The View Wednesday. Some political observers had predicted the wife of Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama might clash with the show's famously conservative co-host, Elisabeth Hasselbeck.
In fact, Obama, 44, quashed any chance of that early on – reaching out and clasping hands with Hasselbeck, 31.
"This girl, she's solid," said Obama, whose husband appeared on the show in March. "She's got great kids, she's a great mom, she's funny. So I can disagree with her on a whole range of points. We can still come back again tomorrow."

Behar to Barack: 'Are You Related to Brad Pitt?'

Joy Behar got right to the heart of the matter that could ultimately decide the election.
"I understand," Behar said to presidential candidate Barack Obama, "that you’re related to Brad Pitt, in some way."
What The View host – who, along with her colleagues, welcomed the Democratic Illinois U.S. senator to the ABC daytime show Friday – was referring to was a claim by the New England Historic Genealogical Society that Pitt and Obama are distant cousins, linked by one Edwin Hickman, who died in Virginia in 1769.

"three-way," Barbara Walters turned her attention to the audience –rather than her cohosts – to solicit confessions.
