Mrs. Jubal and Jubalette #1 (recently returned from her first year at UC Berkeley) attended the yesterday's evening's Women for Mitt event -- featuring Ann Romney -- at the Balboa Bay Club, whence these pictures came:

That's Linda Ackerman with Ann Romney. 

The event was attended by more than 200 hundred women, and while there Mrs. Romney taped an interview with Inside Edition that apparently airs today.

According to my sources in attendance, Mrs. Romney's speech highlighted her husband's many accomplishment's and modestly failed to draw attention to the many charitable projects she personally has lead.   

Telegenic and articulate spouses are a huge asset on the campaign trail. They extend their presidential candidate husband's or wife's ability to appear before voters and can to the candidate's attractiveness to voters -- which makes it puzzling why both Giuliani's and McCain's wives seem near-invisible on the campaign.

While I remain undecided (Jubalette #1 had already thrown her support to Mitt), I greatly admire Ann Romney for battling Multiple Sclerosis and raising five boys (as the father of four girls, I'd like to compare notes with her).
