Ann Romney to Co-host ABC's 'Good Morning America'

Ann Romney is getting a plum platform to show off her smarts while ingratiating herself to the masses.

Mitt Romney’s wife will co-host “Good Morning America” on Oct. 10 while the show’s veteran anchor Robin Roberts continues to recover from a bone marrow transplant. 

The GOP presidential candidate’s wife is considered a true plus for the Republican ticket. She’s an attractive, charming mother of five whose battles with Multiple Sclerosis and cancer offer a compelling life lesson. Plus, her very appearance may hurt the Obama administration’s War on Women meme it’s been stirring up for several months against the GOP ticket.

“GMA” says it is reaching out to First Lady Michelle Obama to see if she would like to sign on for a similar co-hosting assignment.
