Anyone notice the Obama dodge on Rezko? he acted like it was the barest of association
involving 5 hrs work for him? Nothing about his house deal, his 20 year friendship or anything else. Actually, I didn't know he had ever worked for him so that was a revelation to me but it wasn't what the question was about.Dodge, weave and outright lie.

1. I think that if Obama gets the nomination
that the republicans will make sure Rezko is a household name. And again, we will lose another election that was a sure thing.

2. People are already talking about it.Sheesh.it was a 20 year relationship, .He did a landswap
and did funraisers for Obama.His wife is a friend of Michelles.This is no casual friendship. Patrick Fitzgerald is not going to let this rest. This is crime sydicate type stuff.I wonder how many Obama supporters who loved Fitz will be calling for his head when he attacks their idol? Fitz is bipartisan and officialy a Repug.he won't cut Obama any slack.

3. I think this will be the undoing of Obama.
Carefully orchestrated by the powers that be, of course.

They are ignoring Edwards, hoping he'll go away, and then once he drops out, they bombard Obama with the Rezko scandals, tie them together, and devastate his candidacy.

That leaves Hillary. Oh, and they will love that. Whitewater. The years at Wal-Mart. The blow job. Vince Foster. All over again. Hillary is tough, but is she a match for the GOP spin machine?

If Edwards hangs in, he'll pick up a lot of Obama's people once the scandal hits, it's just a matter of timing. I hope this thought has occurred to his campaign.
