Barbara Walters sat down with Michelle Obama and President-elect Barack Obama to tape an hour long interview that aired on ABC on Wednesday night.    The special touched on the transition, the economy, foreign policy and how the family will cope with the major changes to their lives.

Walters found the couple to be “cute” and “very funny”.   Barack paused during the interview to point out to his wife that she had lipstick on her teeth.  Michelle and Barack both insist the girls will be in charge of making their own beds and cleaning their rooms at the White House, as well as walking their new dog and scooping the resultant ‘doggy doo’.
