1. I wish that I could agree, but this issue may stay in the minds of some voters for a longer time.
There's been an email on his church floating around for months-- I first received it in January-- and the rightwing media blowhards aren't likely to miss any opportunity to remind people of the "controversial" minister. IMHO, Obama and the campaign will need to address it repeatedly in the coming months.

3. Make a copy of the speech and answer the e-mail with the text of the speech.

4. That's handy for individuals but I was talking about Obama's need to address it.
I haven't received the email since his speech but when I got it before my reply all stated simply "Sounds to me like some people are terrified that Obama might become president. People "worried" about Kennedy's allegiance to the Pope in 1960 too. "

2. I think they are trying to divert attention away from Obama and what he said
They don't know how to respond so they are just going to try to act like it didn't happen
