In two previous postings I discussed the collaboration between Obama and Wright to get the "Wright Issue" out of the media. No talk show or any conservative pundit is even considering that there was collaboration between the two camps. I told conservative and moderate Blacks who look to me for political commentary after the last week's Obama's "see the light" speech that we would not hear from J. Wright until November 3, 2008 when Obama has been elected.

 

I ask reasonable people to think about it. Why haven't we heard from Wright since the Press Club and Obama's disowning him? This issue was killing Obama in this race. He was losing the White vote from men, women and Reagan Democrats. He was bleeding very bad. In order to stop the bleeding Wright's name had to be taken out of the picture. They did what any egocentric politician would have done. They did what any Clintonite advisor would do. They did what they had to do to get this man elected and that was to collaborate with Wright as a good television series or movie and that would be to get Wright to go public, state the same things he has in the past about America to give Obama the opportunity to speak publicly against him and talk about how much he loves America.

 

After the speeches, the Obama's and his team would cover the media and say, "We don't want to talk about this anymore, the American People are tired of hearing about this and we want to talk about..."   They have succeeded and no body's listening. Why can't we see this is a great strategy? Why can't we believe that the money people and the powerbrokers seen that this man was going to lose if they did not come to his rescue?

 

Ladies and Gentlemen, this is scary that our country is going to be in the hands of people who will do anything to win.
