Obama quits Trinity

Not the old pastor's fault this time. Instead we've got the new pastor charging that Hillary Clinton's New Hampshire tears were sparked by her defeat by -- and I'm paraphrasing the pastor here -- an uppity black man.

I've said before that Obama will probably lose to John McCain in November, and this just confirms it for me. You can't spend your entire adult lifetime associating with a group of people, then ditching them when the spotlight gets uncomfortable. It just looks craven -- particularly when it is craven. If the Scott McClellan brouhaha this week has taught us anything it's that Americans don't like you when you're wrong, but they really hate you when you're disloyal.

Ummm. Hillary was crying because an uppity (politically) black man beat her in New Hampshire. I'm a little out of pocket at the moment. But why is that a problem, or, at least, not true?

Is truth illegal in this campaign?
