Tim, I say that only because, to me at least, she has been so far in the background to be almost invisible.

Which IMO is an entirely appropriate role. We did not elect her. In times like these it might make sense for her to step up a bit (but still be relatively in the background, not making herself the centre of attention).

More on that topic -
"On a parallel communications campaign, the White House
continued today to place Laura Bush, the first lady, into a
more public role. Mrs. Bush was on the Oprah Winfrey
show in Chicago, where she told how she called her
mother, Jenna Welch, moments after the jets struck the
World Trade center.

``She thinks I called to reassure her that I was O.K.,'' Mrs.
Bush said. ``I called to hear her voice.'' "
