I've already read that article, host. I'll go on record right now saying I'm not happy with how Obama is handling (or, actually, not handling) this issue. His shift "toward the center", whatever that means, over the last week or two is troubling.
I still believe he's a strong candidate, and I suspect he's being pushed around by party bigwig handlers who have strongarmed the last several Democratic presidential candidates toward the center, costing us the white house in every case. Bubba did it in '92 and it worked, so now it's hammer to be used on any old bolt or screw. Never mind it's a losing strategy. I only pray there's enough wind under Obama's sails to weather it.
