Michelle Obama paid tribute yet again to Senator Clinton as she addressed the convention's women's caucus here this morning. "Thanks to her, my husband is a better candidate," she said. "Thanks to her, his campaign is a better campaign. And thanks to her, my daughters and all of our daughters have the freedom to dream bigger dreams." Mrs. Obama stressed the importance of the women's vote and said women "now more than ever need an advocate in the White House." She was greeted enthusiastically by a crowd of hundreds that included many Clinton supporters. Three demonstrators silently held up Clinton signs reading "Hillary: Smart Choice" as Mrs. Obama began her remarks, and security guards escorted them out of the auditorium when they refused to sit down. Mrs. Obama did not acknowledge the demonstrators and proceeded with her remarks without further incident.
