Who gets your vote for first lady, Michelle Obama or Cindy McCain? Tell us and your comments may be read on "The Insider" on TV tonight!

Meanwhile, Michelle is speaking out about the John McCain campaign ad that likened her husband Barack to a celebrity on the order of Paris Hilton.

In a "Good Morning America" interview, she said: "It's funny to have anybody characterize Barack as an elitist ... You know, this is the kid who was raised by a single mother, who didn't have access to many resources, who, you know, has walked away his entire life from lucrative careers to work in the community … This guy, you know... he personifies all of what, you know, we hope that our kids can be."

McCain's ad of course inspired Paris Hilton's popular viral video spoof on Funnyordie.com

An extended version of the interview will air on "Nightline" at 11:35 p.m. ET.

  • My vote is for Michelle Obama.
    To me REAL first lady is:
    Smart, strong family value, great role model, well grounded, in touch with all people, graceful. Cindy McCain is a fake and does not possess any of the above values.

  • Michelle, of course. The American people do not need a fashion show, but a real person, with real ideas.
