Nutroots Panicking

There is a fragrant hint of panic in the air tonight at the new mainstream center of the Democratic Party: Daily Kos: Obama, Get Wright’s Dirt Off Your Coattails.

Many of you will disagree with what I have to say, however it’s rapidly becoming clear that it’s now time for Senator Obama to sever whatever ties or perceptions of ties exist between himself and Jeremiah Wright.

Let me be clear, his controversial positions are damaging enough, but they are far from the worst of it.

Rev. Wright is trying to attach himself to Senator Obama: to fuse his cause, his fortunes, his solutions, and his grievances with those of Obama.

I suggest you re-read that last sentence, for it contains the death of our hopes for a progressive president within it.

Change!
