Democratic frontrunner Sen. Barack Obama (Ill.), weathering the storm from another controversial pastor, resigned from his church Saturday.

{mosads}The senator is leaving Trinity United Church of Christ after remarks made by Father Michael Pfleger surfaced last week showing the Catholic priest mocking Obama's rival, Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (N.Y.).

Earlier this year, Obama was hurt by inflammatory remarks made by his longtime pastor, Rev. Jeremiah Wright, and his handling of the controversy.
