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!

 Frank says:

Throwing objects such as this are capable of damaging expensive musical equipment and musicians. Any more of this and there will be no more music. -- FZ, Autumn 1981 at Northrup auditorium in Minneapolis, Minnesota. After someone threw a plunger on stage about two-thirds of the way through the show, he stopped the band with a wave of his hand speaking in the general direction that the dangerous object was thrown, while holding it in his hand. This did not prove to be an amusing act and Franks mood hardened. - It was, however, an evening of excellent, serious musicianship around the release of 'Shut up and play your guitar'
