I agree. The far left will still vote for him but the Reagan democrats and independents won't at this point IMO. My FIL a lifelong democrat has already stated there is no way he is voting for him, he'll stay home.

The head of Obama's church is Rev. John Thomas. Doing a quick 'google' search on him, I found some interesting background. There is evidently a battle going on between conservatives and uber liberals in the churches. Here's one article from March 2006: politicalcortex.com This one is quite slanted in favor of Thomas' POV, but shows the underpinnings of what's going on: talk2action.blogspot.com This site was interesting for the political action being undertaken. Note the first comment below where a poster expresses concern that agreement to a pastoral letter was turned into political action: unitedchurchofchrist.blogspot.com
