No More Mr. Nice Guy!

The Wright stuff

Quick thought: only the rethugs could get away with calling a black man elitist and out of touch with ordinary people, while running a smear campaign against him that can only be called a lynching. Jeremiah Wright has been a godsend for the lunatic extreme right, allowing them to wallow to their black hearts' content in the racism that is at the core of their beliefs, without being called on it.

But I must say my respect for Barack Obama has risen enormously. He has taken everything that Hillary and her rethug bedfellows have thrown at him, and maintained his dignity instead of letting them drag him into the gutter with them. He is far and away the most presidential of the three candidates, and he will make a terrific president.
