After a full day of the news playing video of Barack Obama's personal and campaign minister shouting "God Damn America" from the pulpit, Barack Obama first said that the comments were just words, then he stated that he repudiated the words of an old man like an old uncle, and then he must have decided that the words were either bad or that they were bad for politics and he fired Reverend Jeremiah Wright from his campaign.
For political purposes it was not a moment too soon as more video was surfacing this time, Barack's Minister was attacking Hillary Clinton for being white.

Things just got a lot more serious for the Barack Obama campaign. As a candidate one of Obama's fundamental flaws has just been exposed. He had a hate monger, paranoid and possible racist influence him and his campaign and now he's been forced to recognize this and fire the person.
Democrats may fear losing Barack Obama at this point. Many Democrats embraced the concept that he was the golden child, but this is not going to play well during the general election with most Americans. This will not win over independents and it will turn off many Democratic voters even that do not want another religious zealot in the White House. Barack might have a better chance at selling HDMI splitters at Circuit City if he has many more skeletons in the closet like this one.
