Obama Tired? He Should Be Invigorated.
The one thing that is bothering me right now is not Wright or Hillary or McCain, but the reports that Obama is tired. What's he fighting? Lack of sleep? A cold? If it's not these, he should be invigorated right now. This is as good as it gets, politically. With all of this visibility, he should be making political hay. What's he waiting for?

I don't know. He was great in his speech here in NC last night. But, I would think the close to 20 hour days and increased stress from Wright are wearing on him. It'd happen to anyone.

Obviously, Obama doesn't want to keep wasting time on the Wright issue. He went on record to say that he's sad and angered by Wright's performance yesterday and before. Obama doesn't display emotional high and lows very much, but you can see that he was greatly disappointed today.
People change over time. Who hasn't had a friend or associate change over the years into someone whose actions or words you can't defend anymore?
But as was noted in another thread today, Barack reminds himself that while 15 months on the campaign trail may make him weary, it's nothing compared to the 15 month-plus tours of duty that our military men and women have endured.
