Polls suggest Obama rebounding from pastor flap

It's been a bad few weeks for Barack Obama - losses in Ohio and Texas, major poll deficits in Pennsylvania and, of course, the first mega-controversy of his presidential run, over the controversial comments by his pastor, Rev. Jeremiah Wright.

But two polls out this weekend suggest he may be putting the worst behind him.

The first, released yesterday by CBS News, shows voters giving Obama high marks for his speech on race relations this week, which came in response to the Wright controversy. About seven in 10 voters said Obama did a good job addressing race relations and explaining his relationship with Wright. On the downside for Obama, only half of voters told the pollsters he could unite the country as president -- down from two-thirds in previous polls.
