Really – He don’t understand interest rates and he thinks they should be 0%? This isn’t from years ago – these videos are from the first of the year and was used to help promote Romney. Instead Republicans chose a candidate that knows nothing about the economy when the nation was facing this crisis.
Harry hits it out of the park on this one: I understand that the candidates are putting together a joint statement at Senator Obama’s suggestion. But it would not be helpful at this time to have them come back during these negotiations and risk injecting presidential politics into this process or distract important talks about […]
Just now breaking – John McCain is “suspending his campaign” and wants the debate postponed due to the economic crisis. It should be interesting to see how this plays out. McCain says he wants both campaigns suspended until this “crisis is resolved”. Of course we don’t know when that will be. Could this be a […]
According to a new poll: Asked which candidate could do a better job of handling the financial crisis as president next year, 48% of registered voters named Obama and 35% named McCain. And now that we got more news of McCain’s campaign manager being tied to Freddie And Fannie Mac, we can expect to see […]
This week has been totally dominated by fake outrage and a total silence on the issues from the McCain campaign.

Dow closes down nearly 300 points with concerns about the future of Lehman Brothers. But the fundamentals of our economy are still strong and the people on Wall Street are just whiners. Just ask the McCain campaign.
And they want this idiot to be our vice-President? Speaking before voters in Colorado Springs, the Republican vice presidential nominee claimed that lending giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac had “gotten too big and too expensive to the taxpayers.” The companies, as McClatchy reported, “aren’t taxpayer funded but operate as private companies. The takeover may […]
If you missed Morning Joe, Mort Zuckerman was on and had a very grim outlook for our financial future. The Freddie and Fannie bailout, while necessary, will cost tax payers millions. Detroit is worse off. He is predicting GM and some other manufacturers like Chrysler to merge, and maybe a foreign automaker to buy out […]
He got the bailout to pass! Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) and his top aides took credit for building a winning bailout coalition – hours before the vote failed and stocks tanked. The rush to claim he had engineered a victory now looks like a strategic blunder that will prolong the McCain’s campaign’s difficulty in finding […]
