The Chelsea Factor

Amy Chozick of the Wall Street Journal wonders if Chelsea Clinton lured some of the youth vote away from Barack Obama:

At a rally Mrs. Clinton held in Albuquerque, N.M., on Saturday night, Chelsea received a bigger roar of applause than her mother. Supporters lined up for Ms. Clinton's autograph and waved signs that read "Chelsea's mom has got it going on."

"She's gorgeous!" shouted Robin Sandberg when she saw Ms. Clinton on a campaign stop at the Planet Hollywood casino in Las Vegas. "I feel like she's part of our family. We watched her grow up," said Ms. Sandberg, 45 years old.

In the heat of the race, I'm sure one or two members of Obama's campaign team are probably regretting that Malia Obama's a little too young to imitate middle-schooler Olivia Nutter, whose video endorsement helped her Dad win his campaign.
