Have the Obamas made you less cynical about marriage?
It's a question inspired by Jezebel's commentary about the first couple's role in publicly resurrecting "married romance."
...People seem genuinely moved and excited at the prospect of a couple who are still, quite clearly, in love with one another, who still blush when they are dancing, who still smile as if they just met, who still hold hands in public and hold each other's attention, even when the entire world is screaming their names.
The comments following the post are remarkably optimistic. The batch is flooded with lines like, "The Obamas can make me forget my cynicism about marriage every time I see them look at each other."
What do you guys think? With Obama's presidency, will our images of love become less about weddings and more about marriage?
