Mrs. Obama in Winston-Salem...

So, I'm at the Michelle Obama event in Winston-Salem this afternoon. We're about 45 minutes away from her arriving.

Lt. Gov. candidate Hampton Dellinger was outside working the line and handing out campaing materials. Inside, Rep. Larry Womble (D-Forsyth) is sitting in the front row. So far, that's the political types I've seen.

UPDATE- I just saw Lt. Gov. candidate Dan Besse as well. Rep. Earline Parmon is here as well.

I'm getting a chance to interview Mrs. Obama afterward so that should be interesting to get her perspective on the race here in North Carolina. I interviewed her in Columbia, SC in January but a lot has changed.
