Power Women

Forbes magazine recently published its list of the most powerful women in the world for 2010. Categories are business, politics, media and lifestyle taking into account things like company revenue, the national budget, salary, and Google and Factiva hits. There's a complete list of 100, but here's the short list. In this order.

1. Michelle Obama

2. Irene Rosenfeld

Can I just say I'm surprised at where some people fall on the list and even grateful that some people didn't even make the list?
