I think the american people are a little smarter than the pundits gave them credit for - they saw right through the Rev.Wright & the gas tax holiday nonsense.

John, <<The big thing I can see is that the Wright effect didn't happen.>> It may be that it did happen but Obama may have been able to campaign/spend his way out of the trouble. From some of the reports I was reading, he really outspent Clinton and was very negative in his campaigning. Not that there is anything wrong with that. Unfortunately, that is the nature of politics. I do seem to remember at least one Obama supporter here saying that if he went negative, he wouldn't vote for him. I am guessing his opinion on this has changed since he still appears to be supporting Obama. Neal
