I think that the American voter will eventually decide on whether to vote or not for Obama (who is on the ballot) based on his own merrits, rather than based on the commens of Reverend Wright (who is NOT on the ballot). Obama's poll numbers have likely bottomed out and by Tuesday he will probably be rebounding again. This primary nominating contesting is turning out to be like the basketball playoffs. Teams start out strong, then the other team makes runs, but eventually the stronger team emerges victorous despite hurdles to be overcome. I belive Obama will eventually get the nomination.

Wright doesn't influence IN voters

Of course he does. You just hope the nutty Reverend doesn't influence IN voters but the majority of them are not going to tell some pollster the truth. They will say "Oh of course not" when in actuality they still have it in the back of their minds and will show their opinion in the voting booth.

To Obama's favor, my personal opinion of Obama re his handling of Reverend Wright had softened a lot after hearinm another preacher say the reason why Obama didn't get rid of Wright any sooner was because he had an emotional father-son type tie with Reverend Wright, not because Obama liked Wright's politics.

Now that is a plus for Obama because if I can understand that and rationlize that in Obama's favor then so can thousands of other "on the fence" voters.

However, putting the Reverend aside, what I feel is going to take down Obama and find very hard to forgive is Obama's infamous "bitter" incident which happened in San Francisco when Obama thought nothing he was saying in the room to his limosine liberal buddies would ever see the light of day. Big mistake for Obama.

I do NOT forgive him for those remarks and I don't think hardworking, blue collar, white folks from Indiana will forget it easily either. Obama literally called rural Pennsylvanians that day in SF, his version of "white trailer trash" because those folks grew up in a culture where they hunted with guns, prayed to God, and weren't thrilled with the globalists' free trade agenda or their jobs going south of the border. Obama was condescending and arrogant in his remarks towards them and he LOST the primary in Pennsylvania because of it. THAT is what is going to take Obama down, not Reverend Wright, and Obama did it all to himself.

Say, where has Corky been anyway? You'd figure now with Hillary coming back up in the polls Corky would be front and center on DR but I rarely see him around anymore.
