While next Tuesday’s political activity will focus on our country’s future, NBC will be spending that morning chatting with the current ladies of the White House.

Next week on Today, First Lady Laura Bush will be spending an hour as a “guest host” of the morning program.  During the 9 A.M. segment of show, Bush will participate in several segments and give viewers a tour of the family ranch in Texas.  She will also use some of her allotted time to plug Read All About It! - a new book she co-wrote with her daughter Jenna.

With her husband soon to be out of office, I guess it’s good she has something to fall back on.
