'The View': President Barack Obama, First Lady Michelle Obama make 1st joint appearance

NEW YORK - President Barack Obama and his wife, Michelle, made their first joint appearance Tuesday on the daytime show "The View."

The show says the Democratic president and first lady taped an episode Monday that aired on ABC15.

Obama's appearance in July 2010 was the show's most-watched episode ever.

GOP challenger Mitt Romney might not be far behind. Romney said in private remarks to donors made public this week that going on "The View" is high risk because of the sharp-tongued female hosts, only one of whom is a conservative.

That conservative, Elisabeth Hasselbeck, said Wednesday that she had reached out to Romney, and the campaign said he'd love to come on the show in October.

CBS' "60 Minutes" also announced both candidates will appear Sunday in separate interviews.
