Media Spotlight II

The Rev. Wright's comments alarm black ministers in Los Angeles (National)
Disputing his characterization of the church, they say they fear Obama's former pastor will hurt the Democratic candidate's chances.

Rev. Wright has spent the last few days back in the spotlight and standing behind all of his words that have offended Americans.
Other black ministers have condemned what Wright has said and do not think it will do Senator Obama any good for his campaign.
Wright seems to have jumped on the money bandwagon and has a book coming out that he obviously wants to use the publicity he is getting in order to sell it.
It is going to be very hard to distance himself as far from Wright as he should have in the very beginning when the con traversal speeches first hit the media.
Obama has tried to denounce them now that more rhetoric has hit his campaign about Wright. It seems that Wrights new words have finally angered Obama enough to make some very harsh decisions that Obama found it hard to do the first time.
I am sure Obama wants to get his campaign back on the talking points about the real issues. Wright ended up not being worth the admiration that Obama may have had for him. It is clear today that Obama wishes he would have distanced himself a bit farther from Wright when he first had the chance.
