Obama's speech has been widely praised--compared with JFK's speech to Protestant ministers, or FDR's First Inaugural, even to the Gettysburg Address.

by who, other than obama supporters on blogs? no rational person i'm aware of has compared it so. it gets a dull thud from most thinking persons.

there is no comparison whatever to lincoln's cooper union address, n.o.n.e!

kathy nailed it.

Affecting your perceptions again?

The new polling suggests that the Wright affair has not hurt Obama's standing, in part because his response to the controversy has been viewed positively by voters who favor him over Clinton. Obama's handling of the Wright controversy also won a favorable response from a substantial proportion of Clinton supporters and even from a third of Republican voters.
