From the Washington Examiner: So on election eve, Reid welcomed one of the biggest guns in the Democratic world, First Lady Michelle Obama, to give his campaign a much-needed, last-minute shot in the arm. And Mrs. Obama delivered a rousing political speech in an appearance here at Canyon Springs High School. The only problem was, it was on behalf of Barack Obama, and not the man on the ballot Tuesday.
They remembered. Every time Mrs. Obama mentioned the 2008 presidential race -- and she did it many, many times -- the audience roared with approval. Aided by a presidential-style teleprompter, she recounted the joys of election night 2008, and then the joys of inauguration day 2009, and then her husband's accomplishments, one by one.
Barack cut taxes for middle-class families, she said. Barack also cut taxes for small businesses. Barack stopped credit card companies from jacking up rates. Barack made historic investments in education. Barack increased funding for veterans' affairs. Barack invested in clean energy. Barack appointed two wonderful Supreme Court justices. And finally, Barack brought national health care to America.
It was all Barack, all the time. Reid was forced to stand by, a wan smile on his face, as Mrs. Obama sold her husband's achievements. The most Reid got was an occasional "with Harry's help," Mrs. Obama's way of reminding everyone that Reid played only a supporting role in the Barack Obama show.

It's all about Obama, no matter who he throws under the bus. Harry must know that the Obama's will throw anybody under the bus, including Harry Reid.
Today, Michelle Obama threw Harry Reid under the bus.
