Good spouse, bad spouse

With all of the buzz about Michelle Obama, one is left pondering the parade of recent Democratic Party Presidential candidates who are smooth talkers with … noticeably less personable spouses. Is it because the husbands had to be easy on the eye and ear or the marriage wouldn’t have lasted? Is the nastiness part of the standard MAL inchoate anger, in effect the private side of most MALists, it’s only that the husbands, being candidates, have learned to control it in public? GOP candidate wives seem to be quite a bit more aurally pleasant, or least not nearly as gaffe prone.
