Pastor Jeremiah Wright, who has become part of the national political dialogue in recent days, is viewed favorably by 8% of voters nationwide. A Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey found that 58% have an unfavorable view of the Pastor whose controversial comments have created new challenges for Barack Obama’s Presidential campaign.

Wright was Obama’s Pastor until he retired last month, but Obama has repudiated the preacher’s comments.

Jeremiah Wright: “Mirror, mirror on the wall. Who’s the most unpopular man in America of all? OK, who’s Bob Taft?”

[Secret Agent Man]

Wow, Barack found someone with higher negs than Hillary. I wonder if he intended to actually out-do her in this category....

8% of the general population are officially evil psychopaths.

This also includes you, my dear drive-by media.

[Red Steel]

8% favorable? That much?

Rasmussen probably had to poll the New York Times staff.

[Santa Fe_Conservative]

Did Fred Phelps and clan take part of the poll? Wright’s words are right up that dark alley.

That is interesting considering that Blacks comprise almost 13% of population.

[enduserindy]

I love the part at the end of this story when victims,liberals and demowits blame whites and conservatives for the “racism” that costs Obamalamma the election. Only in America, or some other poorly educated and on the way to socialism state. Should be good TV.. going to make some popcorn.

8% of the people are maroons.

I assume there were about 12% of Blacks in the population that was surveyed and I've seen other polls that show a substantial majority of this group agree with this racist madman. That would about expalin the 8% number.

Unfortunately there are probably some white loons that support this racist.

Just 11% of voters say they are more likely to vote for Obama because of Wright’s comments.

However, among African-Americans, 29% said Wright’s comments made them more likely to support Obama. Just 18% said the opposite while 50% said Wright’s comments would have no impact.

It's sad to see the election reduced to race but I'm afraid it's beyond the point of no return. Obama can cry racism all he wants but he continues to interject it in his semantics when he defends any negative commentary about himself. I'm popping popcorn for Barrack He Who's Middle Name Can Not Be Said Obama's speech on race tomorrow.
