If Any Bone in His Body were Smart Politically, Obama MUST Bring His Grandmother to Counter Ferraro
Edited on Thu Mar-20-08 05:43 PM by Leopolds Ghost
Obama's Grandmother needs to speak out now.

Strike while the iron is hot. It could save his campaign.

Remember McCarthyism? "At long last, have you no decency?"

We have seen black pastors issue several explicit McCarthyesque statements
against Obama on air.

Obama should not hide his grandmother from the press like Chelsea.

Like Kerry refused to "exploit" the man whose life he saved, Rassman.

His grandmother could save his political campaign by coming out in his defense.

Consider it now. In a week, it will be too late.

It is time for Obama's OLDER WHITE relatives and friends to support him.

Specifically, this is Obama's grandparents' opportunity to say something profound for the nation.

I know Obama folks are reading this.

2. If that is the case, one of her peers -- a white relative -- WWII generation.

3. He needs to do something. I think the press is going for the kill.
I'm watching Gregory's show. The press had a choice to make. They chose to finish off Obama. I feel worse today than I have about this issue since it's inception. This is everything Obama was warning against, and when the press does not "get it", then I just don't feel good about it.
