First Lady Michelle Obama went head to head with president Obama's opposing candidate's wife, Ann Romney in a cookie contest - and Michelle took the cake err cookie.

Family Circle Magazine has hosted this cookie contest between the incumbent First Lady and the opposing candidates wife since 1992. Interestingly, the baking contest has correctly predicted the outcome of the general election four of the last five elections.

Michelle beat out Ann with her white and dark chocolate cookies, but the results were close with Ann's M&M cookies trailing by only 287 votes. My only issue with this contest is why didn't I get to be a judge?! Don't they know I'm practically related to Cookie Monster - OK, maybe not, but I am an avid cookie connoisseur, which should have qualified me for the gig.
