I think he's handled this extremely well. I worry, though, that if Obama is the nominee, I think the Republicans are going to really go for the jugular over this and Obama will be forced to condemn Wright's language more vociferously and with specific examples of what offended him, why it offended him and what kind of discourse he's had with Wright about it. I think it would be a good idea to start taking that harder line now.
