Just a Politician
May 2nd, 2008 by Scott
I’m a bit late on this one, but wanted to expand just a little on my post on April 16, about Obama being “just another politician.” I wrote on April 16:
He isn’t the new ‘change’ everyone wants. He is just a politician, just like Clinton, twisting words, distracting and blaming others.
Obama’s paster, Jeremiah Wright, continues to stoke the flames. First, it was his quotes, “God Damn America” days after September 11. Now, he is going after Obama. On April 28, just 12 days AFTER MY ANALYSIS, Wright said:
He’s a politician. And he says what he has to say as a politician. He had to distance himself, because he’s a politician, from what the media was saying I had said, which was anti-American. (Source)
Yup. Obama’s just another politician. In fact, according to Rasmussen Reports, 58% Say Obama Denounced Wright for Political Convenience, not Outrage.
In the race for the Democratic Presidential Nomination, it’s Clinton 46% Obama 44%. That’s the second straight day that Clinton has held a statistically insignificant two-point edge over Obama. However, that represents a ten-point swing since Wright’s press conference. Before Wright appeared at the National Press Club, Obama led Clinton by eight points. (Source: Rasmussen Reports)
As I’ve said many times, this is a fun election. *grin*
