I'll allow Sen. Obama to address the Wright controversy himself...
I haven't heard the whole thing, but what I've seen thusfar is brilliant...
UPDATE: I really like Andrew Sullivan's take on the speech...
I have never felt more convinced that this man's candidacy - not this man, his candidacy - and what he can bring us to achieve - is an historic opportunity. This was a testing; and he did not merely pass it by uttering safe bromides. He addressed the intimate, painful love he has for an imperfect and sometimes embittered man. And how that love enables him to see that man's faults and pain as well as his promise. This is what my faith is about. It is what the Gospels are about. This is a candidate who does not merely speak as a Christian. He acts like a Christian.
