I read the Obama quote three times and couldn't figure out what was wrong with it. To be perfectly fair about it, I think that would be a typical response from one of your political interest. I think most liberals wouldn't see anything wrong with Obama's remarks, or for that matter, with his association with Wright, or his lack of accomplishment. This isn't your fault, it is just a result of being out of touch with the American people. And, like most people, the commitment to the party is much stronger than anything your candidate might actually say or do.

The pundits are slamming Obama hard for nit-picky misconceptions about white culture. When has a candidate been slammed as hard for misconceptions about black culture? I find it racist.

Good article, thanks. I've been out of touch but noticed another Obama blow up. The candidates are really put in a small box in this country in terms of what they can and can't say. I read the Obama quote three times and couldn't figure out what was wrong with it. Then read Hill's blast of him and went "Jeez...". That small box comes from candidates not being able to speak the truth....instead they are supposed to give people what they want to hear. When a candidate comes along who finally wants to really talk about the issues, its to be expected the opposition will try to trash him for it. Ironically, its Hillary who is putting another nail in her coffin. And McCain is smart enough not to push this one too hard.
