Wright didn't ask for the initial attention on him.  Up above, I was referring to his "media tour" this past week.  

In other words:  I believe that if Obama's and Wright's advisors were clever enough to scheme a public "break" between them (in order to help Obama), then those advisors would also see/know that a big Wright media tour is NOT the best way to help Obama, because it fuels the story and gives the media even more footage to play over and over again.

Obama's campaign people are really good, clever and ahead of the curve.  That's why this Wright "break" doesn't seem planned to me, because I think his team is too smart to continue to feed the media machine on this story.

Eventually, the media would have grown tired of playing the same Wright clips over and over.  They couldn't have carried through the general election with the same clips, because viewers would stop paying attention.  

And based on the fact that Obama's poll numbers and fundraising remained fairly constant throughout the Wright "controversy," the media would have seen that it was a non-issue for voters, and would have moved on to the next big thing in election news.

Instead, Wright's media tour gave the media new material  (and gave them fuel to keep the controversy going during the general election).
