Making the Most of Mom

Fineman didn't mention Obama's half-brother living in abject poverty and the squalor of the squatter camp in Nairobi. The CNN interview with him showed a young man on the brink of disaster in a forgotten part of the world - but one who showed some class and dignity when asked about his current situation. A small amount of money would go a long way for someone in his dire straits but none has been forthcoming. This article reveals the panic in the MSM that the big Democratic dirigible is leaking hot air and may be adrift. It is interesting to see MSNBC drag guest after guest on the programs to brainstorm what the Democrats "need to do" in order to regain momentum. The race has turned into the classic tortoise and hare run (a nimble black rabbit and a great white turtle according to Weisberg) and bringing the subject of family into the mix might open a pandora's box for the Democrats. Fineman's article is oddly Bidenesque - it is something that cannot be put back in the box once it is out there.

How can Obama possibly talk about his family ? He threw his Grandmother under the bus calling her a typical white person. When his mother was dying he never even went to see her before she died! So how does he even try to make them look good now!!!

loriw, that's spelled inconvEnient.

Sounds to me like Fineman wrote this article solely to remind us that Obama is BLACK. It's a typical tabloid cheap shot by government-controlled corporate media. Is Fineman a closet racist? You decide.
