Is Amex Delta Skylines Card feasible with Bankruptcy?

I checked out creditboards.com and I looked for the amex delta. It seems like bankruptcy is an issue with them regardless of score. Let me know if someone else has any experience getting this card with a bankruptcy on your report.
 
My BK will be 2 years out in Oct. Everything else is clean on my report minus a collection on TU showing paid.
 
MyFico Scores:
TransUnion: 557
Equifax: 653
Experian: 642
 
If it doesn't look good for getting this card, which other Amex would I possibly be able to get?
I just have 3 starter cards with annual fees and no lates at the moment.
 
I'm also looking to get a house. Would it be safe to apply after I get pre-approved?
 
A lot of questions, but thanks in advance.

I would say you have a 50/50 chance.

It might be worth a shot then. How about the house situation?
Should I wait untill after i get pre-approved for the house?

Well..............
They pulled from Experian.. score 642...yay....but..
Denied due to Bankruptcy.
Oh well, that's my first pull in over 3 months. That shouldn't hurt my score any.
