In this March 5, 2012, file photo, Ann Romney, wife of Republican presidential candidate, former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, wipes lipstick off his face after kissing him at a campaign rally in Zanesville, Ohio. To the yearbook editors at the all-girl Kingswood School, Ann Lois Davies' destiny seemed pretty obvious. "The first lady," the entry beside the stunning blond beauty's photo in the 1967 edition of "Woodwinds" concluded. "Quiet and soft spoken." The modern feminist movement was just dawning, and even some of the girls at the staid prep school in the wealthy Detroit suburb of Bloomfield Hills were feeling their oats _ if in a somewhat tame way. Charlon McMath Hibbard remembers getting a doctor's note about her feet, so she wouldn't have to wear the obligatory saddle Oxfords.
