#1 Too late and too convienient. That's why it smells.
If granny's still alive, look for her to join him on the campaign trail soon. Maybe he'll buy her a gun...

#2 **In a 1995 profile in The Chicago Reader, he [Obama] said, "What if a politician were to see his job as an organizer, as part teacher and part advocate, one who does not sell voters short but who educates them about the real choices before them?"

found that comment on Talk Left from a supporter.

Wow, sounds like Michelle 12 years later....

#3 Too little, Too late. Obama is finished, thanks to Wright. There is no way he can win the general election being seen as a whacked out, racist supporter or at least sympathizer.

#4 It's not September, so it will be forgotten. Much more dangerous will be the Ayers association if there is the fire next time, say August in Denver.

#6 Your turn on the Segway, dude - the Czar of Russia got tired of waiting.

#7 From the mighty pen of the Derb-man in his March Diary.
(2) His shifty reaction to the Wright business was all wrong.

* Defiant truthfulness would have got my attention: "Yes, that's what his sermons are like, all right. Been listening to them for years. I pretty much agree with him. If you have a problem with it, don't vote for me."
*Even a Clintonian Big Lie would have just left me smiling and shaking my head at the, well, audacity of it: "Good heavens! I have never been in the pews when anything like that was said! I had no idea my pastor was capable of such vulgarity! I have resigned from the church, and shall no longer be associated with it in any way. I am shocked, shocked."
What we got instead was a shifty, lawyerish, Obamian weenie lie, enveloped in clouds of gassy uplift-rhetoric. Feugh!

This kind of thing doesn't just make me puke, it would have made any honest-to-goodness old-style lefty puke too.

Can you imagine Eugene Debs or Norman Thomas or Woody Guthrie sitting straight-faced through an Obama speech? Let alone giving one. The sooner this preening neurotic poseur gets his electoral comeuppance, the better.

#8 I have to broadly agree wid #1 > Barack's denunciation didn't come across as SINCERE???

#9 He's not a messiah, anymore, he's a rank politician with no resume, shady and terrorist friends, religious mentors that believe in racist and anti-american fundamentals...and he's had em for years, decades in the case of some. NOW he's sorry??? His wife is one of the whiny racist nutcases, when does he disown her? Sincerity is long gone as an option. It's Damage-Control Week! at Discovery Channel ObamaLand, tune in!

#10 "The sooner this preening neurotic poseur gets his electoral comeuppance, the better."

At first I thought you said "necrotic", Gromguru.

Then I realized that either way works.

#11 It's too late for Hillary. Even if she peels off some of the superdelegates the remainder won't want to be seen as betraying the black community. He'll get the nomination, and he will give McCain a run for his money. Buy gold and invest in oil stocks, because it's gonna get bumpy.

#12 I'll beat the dead horse; the fact that any of these three clowns have the chance to be our next prez pretty much means our country is f*cked.
