I think Hillary and the Right may have a serious complaint about Obama this time. His former preacher is a crazy racist and it is hard to see how Obama could have stayed in that church. Of course, it is difficult for the Right to play this card, as they have already labelled him a Muslim. It's then kind of hard to say he has been overly influenced by a Church of Christ preacher. But Hillary can sure use it. She didn't play the Muslim idiocy, even though the Right claims she did.

It also makes one question Obama's decision making capabilities not to realize that this nut job could be a detriment in any political campaign.

BTW, I thought churches lost their tax free status if they played partisan politics from the pulpit. Discussing political issues would not count, as many are factors very important to Jesus. But saying, "I back Barack" sounds kind of partisan to me.
