It would appear that Barack Obama's speech generally worked. Hopefully this Wright stuff (sorry) can be put to rest now. It actually might be a benefit to Obama in the general: if Wright comes up again, he could just wave it off and say it's old news.
Plus, you're not hearing about how Obama's full of hot air--his speech was hardly superficial or shallow. And the Muslim rumors seem to be gone for the time being. He's shown that he can weather a crisis without going postal and blindly attacking like Hillary. All in all, I feel much better about Obama's candidacy than I did a week ago.
