It’s interesting that Sen. Obama was never mentioned in Roger Simon’s post. He had nothing to do with the event or the people involved. So, why does his name come up in the comments?

Obviously, his much-praised speech that was supposed to distance him from his own minister’s racist rant has proven to be totally ineffective. In fact, I fully expect that similar otherwise unrelated incidents will continue to haunt him through the campaign, and if elected, into the White House. After all, we really don’t know much more about this guy.

Such is the result of nominating someone without any serious credentials or a history of achievements to fill the highest office in the nation. Instead of being defined by their personal record of accomplishment, such people are defined by daily events beyond their control. Consequently, the prospects for Sen. Obama providing any real leadership for our nation appear to be as empty as his self-written “wonder-speech.”
