...more troubling is that the First Lady has been reluctant to take stances on important, albeit divisive, issues pertinent to her candidacy. Take, for example, Clinton's recent trip to the Middle East, where she attracted negative attention for failing to respond directly to the allegations of Suha Arafat, the wife of Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat, that Israel had used poison gas against the Palestinians.
