Obama can't control his pastor, mentor and spiritual advisor of 20 years and you think Clinton can? The guys a bit of a kook and he's taking his sudden thrust into the spotlight to spotlight himself. He doesn't care about Clinton and it doesn't seem like he cares about Obama much either.

Obama is distancing himself more and more by saying if Wright hadn't retired he would no longer be my pastor, Wright has a sketchy history of anyone leaving the 'flock' gets the Wright rath...I seem to remember when Oprah attended his church and suddenly left he hounded her from the pulpit and in letters to her show.

This is certainly not good for Obama that Wright wants the spotlight but Obama gave him the go ahead and thinks it's his right because Wright has been 'unfairly' judged. Do you think Obama thought Wright might have come out and spoke in softer more concillatory and more mainstream tones it would have helped end the controversy ahead of the GE and didn't expect him to come out in the manner which he did?
