It seems the Obama campaign has a habit of disowning publicly but embracing privately when it comes to controversial advisors. The story is behind a paywall which you can access if you’re an IBD subscriber, but here’s the relevant bit:

Last month, his coordinator for Muslim outreach, Mazen Asbahi, a Chicago lawyer, quit after reports that he belonged to the board of an Islamic investment fund that included a radical imam.
Asbahi has not stopped working on behalf of Obama, though. He appeared at the luncheon to say that despite his official exit he was still “110%” behind Obama and that he was participating in campaign conference calls on Muslim outreach.
Stepping down was a “strategic decision,” he told the audience. Asbahi declined to answer IBD questions clarifying his current role.
