It's over. Obama is the nominee.

Obama’s speech today only served to prove beyond any shadow of a doubt his racially motivated hatred of “the evil white man”.

Basically, he has only shown us what we already suspected, that he’s a shallow, unskilled racist politician who hangs out with other racists and bigots.

In the end, the media will ravage him for his bigotry. This speech will serve as the launching pad for the undoing of his messianic rise.

It's beyond me how a guy who refuses to disassociate himself from a bigoted racebaiter can present himself as a "uniter." It has an Orwellian feel to it.

But it was a deftly presented speech that will make people feel good about Obama, and since the Dim party is all about feelings, the article is probably right.

LOL, the MSM trying to tell us “Obama sure is good at lying”, just like in the Clinton years!

"We cannot let these idiots tell us that questions about Wright in the general election are off-limits, which you know they will try. There should be ad after ad on the topic. If McCain won?t do it, then others should independently."

McCain won't do it and will denounce those who try to. McCain's election will have to be accomplished over his own rhetorical dead body IMO.

I think many in the political media will see it as redemptive on personal grounds.

Oh, I'm sure the liberal media will swoon over their 'savior'. But it doesn't change a thing for me. Obamie is still the devil.

Obama has been able to duck press conferences.
The MSM must believe he is vulnerable but he can’t
hide any longer

Better download those quickly for archiving ... the tube is about to censor those inflammatory sermons ‘in the interest of promoting peace’.

Ohhhh... now that’s very clever!

I do not believe for a minute that it’s over. There is still time for the Clinton’s to put out the hit.

**Note** the views, speculation and innuendo regarding the Clintons putting the ‘hit’ on political rivals or those that know too much are not necessarily shared by me. I do however repeat gossip. :snicker:

*yawn* Yup, such an awesome speech... Umm, ‘cept didn’t watch it, but I’m sure that it’ll be repeated over and over again how great a speech it was. Meanwhile, most of the electorate couldn’t give a rat’s behind about such things. The general public has looked at Obama, and passed. So please, please, continue the lauding of how wonderful it was, morons, while the emails about Obama’s church continue to spread...

Ridiculous - Obama attends a black-power church (with an over-the-top black-power minister) to find himself as a black/African-American man, but the rest of us have to “overcome the politics of racial divide.” What a hyprocrite.

Now Nora says it is no different than people who have gays in their family and can't just disown them.

I read the speech. It seemed pretty pedestrian to me, with a lot of feel good rhetoric, but no actual substance. In other words, it hardly differed from his standard fare.

But, hey, I don’t care if Obama is the nominee. He is now easier to beat than Hillary.
