#1 It's a foregone conclusion the 'Race Card' will be played by the GOP all the way to the November 6th election (Rev. Wright is the 'new' Willie Horton), or cut off cold turkey if Queen Hillary assumes the throne in June. Obama will stick to the issues to reassure fearful, or unsure Whites, and draw that ever widening divide between the last 8 years and whats possible in the New Revolution©!!

#3 Blind supporters of Obama could rationalize him catching herpes from a hooker into a positive, "bringing us together", change.
They can stick their New Revolution up their whiny asses. No messiah is going to come down from Mt. Chicago and cleanse us of all our ills. The last thing we need is for Obama to spend 4 or 8 years doting on 13% of the population and trying to figure out how to "redistribute the wealth" of the
remaining 87%. If you want wealth you need to get some of that free education they have been trying to force on you for years, get a job, work hard , and save, save, save. There is no other way to do it.

#5 SMN you're absolutely correct. Wright is Obama's Willie Horton. It's exact even down to the fact that it was the Democrats in the primaries that brought it up.

Fratracide has a long tradition with the Dems cause, after all, they have a large population of haters.

#6 Keep up your BIG LIE tactics, smn. it worked for the commies until they were opposed by Reagan, and it just might work for you. That is, until it is opposed by those who hold the truth as the GOLD STANDARD, not self-serving political correctness.

#7 (Rev. Wright is the 'new' Willie Horton)

#8 Actually, it's the first time I've ever been proud of my country. Maybe Rev. Wright may retaliate by urging a Republican vote this November. That would require an awakening on his part, but he may just be ready for reality.

#10 smn, Rev. Wright has made his entire career playing the race card. He is not a Christian, he is a racist. It's his stock in trade just like Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton. Obama had 20 years to recognize that and he either didn't or else he agreed with it. Either way it's bad.

#11 Damn those Swiftboaters and their endless supply of facts. Don't people realise you can use facts to prove anything that's even remotely true?

#12 I hope Obama doesn't self destruct immediately. Otherwise ~~Bill and~~ Hillary will be Dem's nominee. Wait till the summer for Obama to go all al qaeda.
