The race speech

Barak Obama gave his much anticipated speech on race in America yesterday, and theobama1.jpg early verdict is that it was one of the most powerful, eloquent and nuanced discussion of race
relations in recent political history.  I can't remember the last time a candidate gave such an honest dissertation on a difficult subject, and did it without pandering.  Will it stop the bleeding on the Reverend Jeremiah Wright firestorm? Probably.  It seems silly to keep discussing Wright's screeds in light of Obama's commentary, at least during the remainder of the primary.  Should he win the Democratic nomination, however, it'll almost certainly be discussed in the general election.

Nice speech and all, but at the end of the day it's still about Iraq and the economy.
