Frankly, I do not think that the republican attack machine has really taken off on the Rev. Wright affair. They have no cause to use this as yet, and are probably just biding their time. But if Obama becomes the nominee the gloves will certainly come off. I can’t imagine how this connection will not irretrievably hurt Obama’s chances in the general election.

Did anybody notice that during Obama’s speech….both CNN and MSNBC lost feed of the speech at a point where it seemed like he was about to take a potshot at McLobby….and then they both got it back at almost the same time..

I wonder what he said during the blackout.

I hate MSNBC and CNN….they will be the death of this nation if they don’t stop skewing this election. It just makes me sick.

What will be interesting to see, after Obama’s smooth recovery from the Rev. Wright flap, is how Hillary handles the Tuszla scandal. Could be a useful compare/contrast.

Jane Hamsher:

The inevitable encore will be to tell important donors that he and/or his foreign policy people are unreliable on Israel. It’s a free country, so they’re free to put their mouths and money where they want, but that’s Clinton’s last card to play.

Chris Matthews and three of his talking heads chatted last night about why the press likes McCain so much. Matthews concluded, and the others all grinned and nodded, that it was because McCain realized that it was all sort of a game. They all agreed that the couldn’t like teh serious campaigners who were more formal and tried to explain policy to them.

Matthews mentioned that, for a while, McCain was kind of stand-offish, or cool toward the press, because the far right and Republican powers that be were suspicious of this relationship. They all agreed that he was starting to loosen up and come back to them. None of them seemed to think therewas anything wrong with this relationship.

What they are doing is sowing discontent among various minority groups against Obama (You can’t trust those people).

I had a long chat with some New Yorkers this weekend and felt sick to my stomach that this is working …
