The big story coming out of the Obama campaign during the past week or so is his attempt to win South Carolina, which I think Edwards will ultimately win if he takes Iowa as expected, by appealing to the anti-gay black vote. He is doing this by having Grammy-winning singer Donnie McClurkin join him on the stump as a master of ceremonies.
McClurkin has billed himself as a "ex-gay," whatever that is, and he has said he was cured of it by turning to Jesus instead.
If the blogs and discussion boards are representative of voter sentiment in the "real" world, Obama has jumped the shark and probably ought to get out of the presidential race.
