5. That piece really did suck though because it gave no context for why Obama did it.

Alice Parker decided to run for a House seat in Congress. She essentially gave Obama her blessing to run for her seat, she introduced him to her supporters (that was when he met Ayers - he was one of her supporters) and she said no longer wanted her state senate seat. Then she lost the Democratic primary to run for Congress. She changed her mind and decided to go back and run for her state senate seat. Obama thought she went back on her word.
