Wright's Rantings Won't Sink Obama:By Dick Morris
Let the Obama/Clinton DU Hate fest continue.

It is a tale.
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

-William Shakespeare

<snip>(b) Wright's rantings are not reflective of Obama's views on anything. Why did he stay in the church? Because he's a black Chicago politician who comes from a mixed marriage and went to Columbia and Harvard. Suspected of not being black enough or sufficiently tied to the minority community, he needed the networking opportunities Wright afforded him in his church to get elected. If he had not risen to the top of Chicago black politics, we would never have heard of him. But obviously, he can't say that. So what should he say?

He needs to get out of this mess with subtlety, the kind Bill Clinton should have used to escape the Monica Lewinsky scandal -- but didn't. As the controversy continues, Americans will gradually realize that Obama stuck by Wright as part of a need to get ahead. They will chalk up to pragmatism why he was so close to such a preacher. As they come to realize that Obama doesn't agree with Wright but used him to get started, they will be more forgiving.<snip>

4. For once I agree with the toe sucker. Obama proved yesterday
that he is not an average politician, but a great man.

8. I don't care for Dick Morris because with age he has become very cynical and biased tow the Clinton'...
And as such this is just his opinion in an Op-Ed piece. However, he said yesterday that if Barack were the nominee he would have a difficult time with the race issue lingering. The fact he didn't distance himself from Wright. You know, the typical Morris BS.

9. I agree with the toe-epicurean myself.
I think it's much ado about next-to-nothing. McCain has his own wacky-preacher problems and will stay far away from Wright.

16. It doesn't matter if McCain "stays away"
if the right wing attack groups press the issue.

14. Well, Wright's Rantings SHOULDN'T Sink Obama...
Edited on Wed Mar-19-08 11:39 AM by Moderate Dem
But they could. It all depends on what independents, moderates AND people who don't pay much attention decide about it.

...and the "toes" stuff here is irrelevant.
