Personally, I combined these issues with Obama's poor handling of Donny McClurkin, what I see as a broken record speech tour, and a growing distrust of him in my gut, and the choice to vote for Hillary was easy for me. I found her to be straight with her solutions and plans, and him to be woefully inarticulate with details and rather full of himself on empty message. Something in my gut told me he wasn't giving me the whole picture, and it completely prevented me from buying into his message. And I wanted to be swept up in it, but my rhetorical soul wouldn't allow it. So I proudly voted for Hillary, and was glad that PA was finally over.

With my vote, questions of Obama electability seemed to be surfacing with increasing frequency. Questions of if he could beat McCain in the fall started to be lobbed and they weren't being returned by the Obamabots with the ferocity they once were.

Then today, and as recently as yesterday, the Reverend Wright drug Barack back into the mud.
It seems Senator Obama's "spiritual leader" has designs of his own. It seems he has a book to sell, and is willing to not only show Barack the back of the bus, but to push him out of it as it cruises down the highway. I am not sure what to make of this?! It seems to me that Obama must denounce Wright, and vigorously work to remove himself from the growing shadow of this preacher and his ax. And in my heart, I see such an action as enough to absolve Obama from this zealot. But I know in my mind that such actions will not be enough to make the questions go away. I know that many a supporter on the fence is wondering if this is a wound that will crush Obama's chances?

I didn't think that McCain could beat either of them come November.

Now I am not so sure?

The faith in politics debate is one the GOP plays like a fiddle. This is not a discussion that if Obama tries to control it will set well with most Democrats. Already McCain and the GOP are taking aim at Obama with this angle, and with no end in site from Reverend Wright, they will get lots of traction from the discussion, debate, denouncement, and divide that will surely grow as this evolves.

So the question really becomes:

"Is Barack Obama electable against John McCain in November?"

Do the superdelegates believe that he can beat McCain with this issue out there and growing further out of control with each passing day?

This is no other than a practical question of potential. If Obama isn't able to beat Hillary resoundingly, will he be able to knock out Flip-flop McCain? I still think he can, but he has to react the right way to this problem. Otherwise he is doomed, and with him so are we.

Obama has yet to prove himself strong in response to the heat of the moment. He is great when he has a day to craft a speech and a response, but as President, or even as a contender in debates in October, he won't have the luxury of time to decide how best to respond. The debate in PA is just a taste of what he will be up against when the entirety of the GOP hate machine is focused on him. Can he overcome it? Can he win?

Is it time that he answers the calls to step aside and allow the other electable Democrat to take on McCain? Is it time for him to consider the VP path to the White House? I am still a fan of the Dream Ticket, even though all pundits tell me its nothing more than a fantasy.

Indiana, West Virgina, Oregon, Guam, Puerto Rico, Montana, North Carolina, and Kentucky...This is up to you! It is time you started paying attention and started thinking in terms of who can beat McCain? Drop the race card. Drop the gender card. Stop playing into the GOP games of division, they are still both excellent candidates with serious handicaps each. The difference is that Hillary has already been deconstructed by the GOP and many of you, and she still stands strong and firm as a solid candidate. Obama is still being dissected, and one of his closest adviser's is holding the knife!

So ask yourself, when October comes who will beat McCain? As Obama tumbles on the pavement, shoved from the bus by his own Pastor, ask yourself if you think he can win? I have already voted in PA. Undecided states, this is now up to you.

Don't just hope for change, Vote for it!

Hillary 2008!
