I watched (perhaps too much) commentary last night on the speech. I found much of it pretty insightful, including quite a number of things that I missed the first time around.

Once again, it will come down to whether Democrats want to run away from him now, or rally around him. We'll see, soon enough…

So, this comment isn’t from me (even though I’m posting it), but rather from someone else. Here is a link to the posting where they linked to this post:

Obama made his choice, now he has to live with it…

“Since he still says Wright is “part of me” (and he can longer claim that he doesn’t know the full scope of Wright’s hatred of “white America”), he should be judged for containing that “part.”", Power Line. Amen. He has…
