Personally, I believe that the full story of Obama’s relations with folks like Tony Rezko, Bill Ayres, and Jeremiah Wright is likely to be far more troubling than his teenage (but was it only teenage?) use of drugs. But we’re unlikely to get to the bottom of all that before the election unless Stanley Kurtz has some rapid breakthroughs, which he might. Even then, though, one wonders what the media at large would make of the revelations.

I don’t wonder about it at all. I know that the media will do everything in their power to hide that information. There are some people who believe that the media is objective and evenhanded. There are some people who believe that professional wrestling is not scripted ahead of time.
