looking through my prior comments I can't find anything that contradicts what I'm saying here.
But the deeper question is whether I'd hold McCain and Obama to the same standard regarding Hagee/Wright. Unfortunately the two situations are not identical, as Hagee and Wright say different things and have different relationships with Obama. That being said I think McCain should distance himself from Hagee's outlandish statements but would not vote against McCain based solely on his relationship with Hagee (although I have plenty of other reasons for voting against him).
