I don't know: Is Wright as big a story as the DU firestorm suggests? [View All]

I mean to a broad audience beyond the limited reach of political talk shows. Fox and hate radio are already 24/7 anti-Obama anyway. 90% of those folks are gone anyway. People that watch Hardball and the like are political junkies with strong opinions of their own one way or the other. I guess a few people in airports might think something is up if they are stuck watching CNN midday. Until tornadoes become the new lead story.

This seem to be a story of, by, and for political reporters and their junkie listeners for the most part mostly because it was an address to the National Press Club. Not sure it is trickling down to the public at large all that much. Just my take from the tone of the AP stories, USA Today and the like. I don't watch TV nightly news so I suppose there could be a broad negative result there.

Since there is no "there" there (ie. bribery, extortion, felony, live boy, dead woman, coverup, etc) why is this a "scandal that will change the face of history"?

Final question, is guilt by association the new McCarthyism? If so, who is immune?
