John McCain's campaign manager says he is reconsidering using Barack Obama's relationship with Reverend Jeremiah Wright as a campaign issue during the election's closing weeks.
In an appearance on conservative Hugh Hewitt's radio program, Davis said that circumstances had changed since John McCain initially and unilaterally took Obama's former pastor off the table. The Arizona Republican, Davis argued, had been jilted by the remarks of Rep. John Lewis, who compared recent GOP crowds to segregationist George Wallace's rallies. And, as such, the campaign was going to "rethink" what was in and out of political bounds.
"Look, John McCain has told us a long time ago before this campaign ever got started, back in May, I think, that from his perspective, he was not going to have his campaign actively involved in using Jeremiah Wright as a wedge in this campaign," he said late last week. "Now since then, I must say, when Congressman Lewis calls John McCain and Sarah Palin and his entire group of supporters, fifty million people strong around this country, that we're all racists and we should be compared to George Wallace and the kind of horrible segregation and evil and horrible politics that was played at that time, you know, that you've got to rethink all these things. And so I think we're in the process of looking at how we're going to close this campaign. We've got 19 days, and we're taking serious all these issues."

PLAY IT!
They should not worry about Wright, they should press “joe the plumber” issues.
O’Bomber is completely surrounded by “ugly, repulsive people” - No one will pay any attention...
game on now
And while they’re at it, rethink ANWR drilling, amnesty for illegals, adherence to global warming myths, and opposing campaign finance “reform” that just bit you in the a$$ while Obama was spending a BILLION dollars.
I think just did play the Rev. Wright car by talking about it on Hewitt’s show. According to El Rushbo, McCain did not run with Wright was because Powell did not want him to. Well now that Powell endorsed Obama, that card is off the table.
First, do they really think that would matter to people when Obama already dealt with the issue during the primaries and the economy still has people on edge? Second, if you are going to bring it up, why the hell would you announce it ahead of time?
McCain’s campaign is one of the worst run campaigns in history.
They need to play this American hating racist bastard over and over and over. He is relevant. He’s relevant because Obama perceives these people as normal—this is the passion the left uses...and Ayers...bombing the pentagon and Capitol...hmmm he got two more government buildings than Obama...again Obama sees them as normal activity for “activist”....
McWimp should have nothing off the table.
He could also do some comments on Obama's Communist, sex pervert mentor, Frank Marshal Davis.
It's the entire crew stupid!
Well, if they do I hope they use new tape.....I am sick of GD America....USKKK of A...etc. Use new material!
O’Bomber is completely surrounded by “ugly, repulsive people” - No one will pay any attention...

... except for the undecideds ... whoever they are (no friggin clue).
What, and put a huge dent into Davis's lobbying business? LOL!
AH YES! SAVE THE BEST FOR LAST...
They can do both and they should.
Do both, as they say in the hood, dont talk about it be about it
The fear of death is worse then death itself
