Republicans are now pretty certain that this fall, it will be Barack Obama.
Makes sense. And it's good that the criticisms being developed are based on issues.
Because if you think about last night's primary results, again, I just don't think pounding endlessly away on such things as the Jeremiah Wright kerfuffle is the way to go. The Wright issue has been a big story for weeks now. And yet, last night Obama did better than ever with the African-American vote, winning 90% of it. And he improved his standing among women and whites. No major erosion. Indeed, all the momentum seems to be on his side now, despite weeks of mostly-Wright most of the time.
More concrete issues have to be the focus now for Obama's opponents.
