Whether the liberals like it or not the Ayers and Wright controversy are going to hit extremely hard 2 weeks before the election and will disgustingly as this may be the only thing people talk about. Go to realclearpolitics.com, look at general election polls, go to the national average chart and look at Obama's polls right when the Wright controversy came out around 3/09/2008. He fell almost 4 points. http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2008/president/us/general_election_mccain_vs_obama-225.html If Obama's past even does half the harm it did to him in March it will still be a very close election.
