Malia Obama is Crazy Tall.

Seriously.  She’s 10, and she comes up past Michelle’s shoulder.  And Michelle is almost 6′ tall.

Oh, and here are more election-night shots from Obama’s Flickr page.

By the way, have you been to Change.gov?  I’ve been asking folks if they think this is a permanent site, or if it’ll be shut down after the transition ends.  It could become a tangible example of transparency within the Obama administration.

    How is the info on the change.gov any different from the position papers that a campaign normally puts out? If you want to know if there is really going to be change then lets see if the Obama admin really requires the ethics rules for new admin hires they said they would or if they “refine” their position to make it easier now that they have been elected. The NYT had an interesting article on this subject on the 5th. http://www.nytimes.com/2008/11/06/us/politics/06lobby.html?ref=politics

  • Malia is going to be modeling tall. And with those Robinson/Obama features… who knows? She might go there. Not only have I been to change.gov, but I’ve left my story there. They’re gathering emails of supporters there as well.

    I hear you Lina! I’m 25, and 5ft tall. Malia is really tall, it makes me jealous. Seems kids get really tall fast, and at an early age. The neighbor boy that lives next to me is 12 and 6ft already! A giant compared to me. Anytime I can’t reach something at my house, I just call him over…..LOL
