Campaigning for the re-election of Colorado Senator Mark Udall, First Lady Michelle Obama went on a gaffe binge worthy of Joe Biden.
It started when she confused the incumbent Democrat with his Republican challenger, Cory Gardner:
Whoops. @FLOTUS calls @MarkUdall a fifth-generation Coloradan. That's @CoryGardner. #copolitics

FLOTUS was only off by … a few generations:
Uterus was not even born in CO RT @lynn_bartels: Whoops. @FLOTUS calls @MarkUdall a fifth-generation Coloradan. That's @CoryGardner.

But wait, there’s more!
"We will get Mark Udall into office," says Michelle Obama to Denver rally–but he's already in office

D’OH!
Michelle Obama today on the trail: We will get fifth-generation Coloradan Mark Udall into office!

And possibly FLOTUS’ funniest of the day:
"By almost every economic measure, we are better off today than when Barack first took office," @FLOTUS says

Now that’s hilarious.
In addition to those gems, Michelle Obama has had quite the last couple of weeks on the campaign trail:

Michelle Obama doesn't know anything about the guy she's campaigning for in Iowa, starting with his name – http://t.co/NUH6jRI3nj
