The debacle with Obama's minister, who, I believe, is just revealing his true self, is just part of the problems with Obama's electability.Obama distancing himself NOW, after recently saying that Rev. Wright was like his family and could not be discarded, looks false and manipulative. Obama saying he didn't 'know' this (side of ) Rev. Wright either looks like Obama is totally myopic on the character of those in his life (surely not a good trait for President) OR that he is just another typical truth twisting politician.

Newsweek recently came up with a list of five reasons he is not electable, besides the two decade alliance with Wright's hate mongering church is: a financial scandal, Obama's race in (a sadly still) bigoted nation, the inexperience factor and the final point that Obama may just not have the drive and power to win compared to other seasoned candidates.

I know that most times I have posted here, as a Hillary supporter, I have been attacked.(if my posts themselves have not been deleted) But I do wish the Obama supporters would take a long hard look at the flaws in this candidate. How can one not question why a man who is supposedly devoted to unity spent so many years in the tutelage of a hate spewing ,paranoid, postering man like Wright? . Obama previously explained that Wright was just an 'old fashioned' civil rights type- but actually Wright is now being revealed to being grandiose, accusatory, insular hatemonger. Don't forget that 'old fashioned' civil rights leaders also included visionaries like Martin Luther King. Perhaps the dyed in the wool supporters of Obama will again choose to turn a blind eye and not see the discrepency here, not to mention the blatant hypocrisy of their candidate of 'unity'.

(btw, I would like to say that since the sixties I have belonged to two houses of worship; BOTH have been multi-racial and multi -ethnic; that has been MY conscious choice - I have also been to all black and all white ministries, and I NEVER have heard, nor would I have long tolerated, the rantings of such a maniacal individual as Rev. Wright)


I still believe, more than ever, that Obama's campaign is destined to fail, and that Hillary is the only chance the Democrats have to beat McCain.

Obama supporters may STILL not see the widening fissures in Obama's character, nor find any doubts in his abliities to lead this country.

But I know that the vast majority of voters of this nation will.
