Obama Back on My Radar!

Crap, why can't I ever see things like this?

Of all people, Dick Morris defends Obama's relationship with the Wrong Rev. Wright.
This is an excerpt from an article Morris co wrote with Eileen McGann:

Wright's rantings are not reflective of Obama's views on anything. Why did he stay in the church? Because he's a black Chicago politician who comes from a mixed marriage and went to Columbia and Harvard. Suspected of not being black enough or sufficiently tied to the minority community, he needed the networking opportunities Wright afforded him in his church to get elected. If he had not risen to the top of Chicago black politics, we would never have heard of him. But obviously, he can't say that. So what should he say?


Of course! How clear can it be!

So, Obama is back in my good graces. He's still down a few pegs from his former standing with me, but he is someone I could vote for.

Morris goes on with some interesting stuff, here's a link to the article.
