If Ayers is a not an issue why is the Obama team spending so much time responding to it? I agree that the Ayers alleged relationship to Obama is not an issue that would sway my vote but what would is a candidates honesty in responding to the question about the relationship. McCain has responded to some questions that suggests that he is being less than honest and I am disappointed with that but it is isolated. Obama has a pattern, and I am not only disappointed but disturbed by the pattern. If Ayers helped a young Chicago politician and if that young politician knowingly used that help, say it. The issue goes away. If a young South Side Chicago politician joins the most influential church on the South Side of Chicago because the church can serve a spiritual need and a networking need, say it. The issue goes away. Obama often asks us to suspend rational thought as he tap dances around these points that are relatively trivial. The more he does this the bigger the issue gets.
