Just saw my first Rev Wright ad
I just saw the nasty Rev Wright ad the racist Reich is running in Florida. It was very predicable, definitely designed to scare white people, but one part stuck out to me:

The ad claims Obama built his political career in Wright's church which I find kinda funny because according to the PaLIEn/McFossill campaign, Obama built his political career in William Ayer's living room! Next they'll be claiming Ayer's living room is in Rev Wrights church! lol

With that said, I think this ad will backfire like all the other nasty attacks on Obama have. Bigots will love the ad but they wouldn't vote for Obama anyway, and I think most people will see it for what it is: DESPERATION from a campaign that has nothing to offer for the future of America except the same old divisive politics that we have faced for the last 8 years.

1. Yes, and it was not an official GOP ad. But no rebuke from McMaverick.

2. I can't imagine anyone missed..
Reverend Wright the first go around. Sometime in those 3 weeks of 24/7 coverage of the clip being played over and over and over on every cable news channel most people would have tuned in, or at least heard about it. I don't think anyone is surprised by this either. It's all they got.
