Rev. Wright blows up and Obama must deal with it...

Given Rev. Wright's PR stops over the past couple of days, Obama is now disowning him and his comments in NC during a press conference.  Don't know if this will suffice for the national media but nothing worse could have happend less than a week out from Indiana and North Carolina...

Andrew Sullivan has his break down HERE.

Huffpost is on the trail HERE.

And Talking Points Memo details Obama's presser HERE.

As a supporter of Obama, the campaign he has run and how intends to lead and govern if elected President, Rev. Wright and his statments are the biggest threat to an Obama presidency that we've seen yet.  Hopefully, Obama and his campaign can draw a line in the sand that is easily seen by the media, his supporters AND his detractors but given the comments and Wright's views, this is a job that will take all of Obama's orital skills to pull off.

UPDATE: The video below is of Obama's opening statement on Rev. Wright's comments yesterday before his press conference.  Thanks to TPM for putting up the video.
