U.S. Edition
(CNN) - Spokesmen for Hillary Clinton's campaign on Saturday repeatedly declined to comment on Barack Obama's reaction to his former minister Jeremiah Wright's controversial sermons.
"Senator Obama addressed it, voters are going to look at what he had to say, and we'll take it from there," Clinton Press Secretary Phil Singer said of the issue on a conference call with reporters.
"That's really for Senator Obama to address," Clinton strategist Mark Penn also said on the same call.

Clinton for president in 2008...She doesn't have any commits because she knows Obama is out of politics...LIKE HANNITY SAID OBAMA CAN'T BE PRESIDENT,HE SHOULDN'T EVEN BE ALLOWED TO BE A SENATOR.
I already voted for Obama. Is there any way I can change it to Hillary?
Is it a crime to be a christian? What has a sermon got to do with a campaign. Go Obama you are a success. Shame to your detractors.
wow..........
its amazing what Obama's spritual leader says.
and
we want Mr. Obama to be our president.
I wonder what will be our policies be towards non-blacks when your spirits are influenced by the man who HATES AMERICA and the majority of American who just happen to be white.
Vote 2008
Barack's speech in Indiana today addressed it well. He received a rousing, standing ovation. Barack insisted a "divided America won't get us anywhere."
He also referred to his convention speech insisting "we 're not a white America, a black America, an Asian America or an Hispanic America. We're the United States of America."
A message to Speaker Pelosi: Obama/Clinton in 2008!
JUST ANOTHER REASON NOT TO VOTE FOR OBAMA.... THIS PASTOR WAS HIS MENTOR? FOR HOW LONG? NO THANK YOU! THIS PASTOR'S THINKING AND SPEECH HASN'T CHANGED OVERNIGHT AND OBVIOUSLY HASN'T CHANGED FOR OBAMA'S CAMPAIGN.....THIS MAN HAS BEEN RANTING FOREVER, VOTERS SHOULD WAKE UP TO REALITY. OBAMA IS NOT QUALIFIED AND NEVER HAS BEEN QUALIFIED TO LEAD THIS COUNTRY AND BE PRESIDENT......
Good Job Hill Obama 08
Excellent position to take. It's up to the Democractic bigwigs to ask for Obama to withdraw from the race, or the Democractic party will crash and burn if he gets nominated.
good
Let it go CNN! I'm a Hillary supporter and I am so sick of your divisive reporting. We want to hear about the issues. When you report on where Hillary stands on the issues, that's when she'll win votes. Your reporting on this minister's comments is ridiculous! WE DON'T CARE. Obama didn't say them so stop making such a big deal and go back to journalism and get your heads out of the tabloid toilet!
This is a step in the right direction. It's time to put the Wright and Farraro stuff behind and get to some issues.
Hey media! How about some issues now?
Diplomatic. It is good to keep out of this controversy . Voters will decide on this issue.
now can we all kiss and make up.
missouri
Very good move Hillary! Especially since this was the most racist and just down right nasty comments made by anybody and seems to really hate white people. My problem is that if he has been the pastor for Obama for over 20 years it is hard to believe this sort of rhetoric and attitude has not been out there before and how much of that type of reprehensible type of sermons has rubbed off on Obama. After all he got the title of his book from Wright so it seems reasonable that this type of attitude being preached to you would have a tendency to be a part of your make up after so many years. If not why would you keep attending a church and a pastor that was not having an effect on you and your spirituality. In Obama's own words "I inhaled as that was the whole point". Same difference if you ask me.
I hope this will open the musch needed debate about the real resentment between the black community and the white community because of injustices and centuries of suppression. Hopefully, we can move towards connection.
NO Comment....ayeeeeeee
Im a Navajo Indian Supporter of Hillary and i think this was the best move yet, Go Hillary
Now I start to believe that Obama's campaign is based on 'rich white men/women' haters... No wonder 95% of black vote for him.
