Just hours before the vice-presidential debate, Michelle Obama called her husband's running mate, Joe Biden, "one of the smartest men in Washington."
Biden is "the kind of guy you want to have a beer with," she told Ryan Seacrest on his KIIS-FM radio show Thursday. "I hope that part of his personality comes through."
As for her own guy, Obama, 44, talked about her husband's ceaseless energy and promise – and about the couple's courtship.

Originally posted 09/12/2008 04:35PM
Perhaps it's because she recently tied the knot herself, but Ellen DeGeneres seemed to be in a romantic mood while interviewing Ryan Seacrest for Monday's Ellen DeGeneres Show.
The new bride, 50, presses Seacrest, 33, on why he can't seem to find love, according to excerpts of the show. On a helpful note, she comes up with a suggested date – Eva Mendes – and even offers to set him up with the actress.
"I want to know what love is?" says Seacrest, who at the end of last year told PEOPLE his goal for 2008 was to make time for a personal life.

Originally posted 03/17/2008 12:20PM
For the second year in a row, Ryan Seacrest lands a spot on Details magazine's "Maverick" list of the 22 big thinkers shaping the world. This year the 33-year-old American Idol-E! News-On Air KIIS-FM host also lands the cover!
Seacrest, who appears on the annual list with SNL star Amy Poehler, Oscar-winning Juno screenwriter Diablo Cody, and Amy Winehouse's Grammy-winning producer Mark Ronson, calls himself a "content provider," while the publication dubs him, "the new King of All Media."
In accepting the honor, Seacrest tells the magazine of his busy, "planned-to-the-second" schedule, "I'm tired, but I'm used to it. You know when you watch video screenings and there's a time code in the corner? I have dreams about time codes."
