CHICAGO (FOX 32 News) -
The election is over, the plug has been pulled on the negative ads, and the robocalls are over.
It's been a long political season---heck, it's been a long week covering the results. On Tuesday night, I was over at McCormick Place for President Obama's Election Night rally. There were 2,000 other reporters from 65 different counties and 10,000 invited guest---supporters and volunteers.
While everyone talked about the stuff we're supposed to on Election Night, I couldn't help but hear some ladies talk about the First Lady's dress. One said "who is the designer?" It was a repeat--not just a dress worn one time. And, Sasha was wearing one of her big sister's skirts.
It's a true sign of the times---the first family is doing something we all do, or all did when we were growing up!
