It’s funny, yesterday I thought that his speech would quell this controversy, but it’s actually stirred-up a lot of criticism in outlets that you would expect to be sympathetic to his argument.
I have the suspicion that the equivalency he’d drawn between Wright and his grandmother, and repeated jabs at Geraldine Ferraro have stuck with people.
It’s apparent that what Obama is proposing is really just the same old race politics, promoted in more moderate tones, and labeled as Unity. This controversy has forced him to the ground, and I think that it’s going to be difficult for him to recapture the moral status that he’d been given to this point.
