Okay, I'm going to have to be a little brutal about this ad.Just this morning McCain told a crowd of people in Florida (should be the post below this one) that the fundamentals of our economy is strong.  Well, which is it?  Does McCain see a crisis with our economy or not?McCain can not go around telling people the fundamentals of our economy is strong in one breath and then tell people our economy is in a crisis.  Either McCain is speaking from both sides of his mouth, don't really know what's going on, or McCain is a pathological liar.   McCain can not have it both ways -- double talk express rides again.  The truth is that McCain supports Bush's policies and plan to enforce them even more so then Bush did.  Why else pretend that the economy is fundamentally strong? more about "Crisis", posted with vodpod

The McCain-Palin camp wasted no time in addressing the biggest issue of this Monday.Video embed on next page...

Today, U.S. Senator John McCain issued the following statement on the situation in the financial markets: “The crisis in our financial markets has taken an enormous toll on our economy and the American people – first the decline of our housing markets followed by the collapse of Bear Stearns, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and now Lehman Brothers. I am glad to see that the Federal Reserve and the Treasury Department have said no to using taxpayer money to bailout Lehman Brothers, a position I have spoken about throughout this campaign. We are carefully monitoring the financial markets, including the duress at Lehman Brothers that is the latest reminder of ineffective regulation and management. Efforts must also be focused on ensuring that the deposits of hardworking Americans are protected.“It is essential for us to make sure that the U.S. remains the pre-eminent financial market of the world. This will be a highest priority of my Administration. In order to do this, major reform must be made in Washington and on Wall Street. We cannot tolerate a system that handicaps our markets and our banks and places at risk the savings of hard-working Americans and investors. The McCain-Palin Administration will replace the outdated and ineffective patchwork quilt of regulatory oversight in Washington and bring transparency and accountability to Wall Street. We will rebuild confidence in our markets and restore our leadership in the financial world.”Do a Google search.  John McCain has been speaking out about the recession, the U.S. Economic situation since 2006 and 2007!  He was telling us we were in a recession before any other Republican, and most Democrats.  He was warning about the government bailing out poorly run investment companies years ago! We need to elect a President who tells us what we need to hear, not someone like Obama who tells us what his polls say we want to hear.

Okay, I'm going to have to be brutal about this ad. Just this morning McCain told a crowd of people in Florida (should be the post below this one) that the fundamentals of our economy is strong. Well, which is it? Does McCain see a crisis with our economy or not? McCain can not go around telling people the fundamentals of our economy is strong in one breath and then tell people I'm economy is in a crisis. Either McCain is speaking from both sides of his mouth, don't really know what's going on, or McCain is a pathological liar. You can't not have it both ways. The truth is that McCain supports Bush's policies and plan to enforce them even more so then Bush did.

New McCain Ad: Only McCain And Palin Can Fix The EconomyJohn McCain has a new ad out this morning, touching on the subject of the financial crisis. It probably won't be as memorable as the Obama campaign's new "dishonorable" ad:"Our economy -- in crisis," the announcer says. "Only proven reformers John McCain and Sarah Palin can fix it."Obama In Colorado, Biden In MichiganBarack Obama is campaigning today in the key swing state of Colorado, with a 1 p.m. ET event in Grand Junction and a 6:30 p.m. ET rally in Pueblo.

"The campaign a person runs says everything about the way they'll govern," Biden will say, according to pre-released excerpts. "John McCain has decided to bet the house on the politics perfected by Karl Rove."WaPo: Electoral Map Shrinking Back To Familiar ShapeThe Washington Post reports that despite the Obama camp's early optimism that they could expand the electoral map into some very unusual states for a Democrat to compete it, the map now seems to be receding back to some of the same swing states we've watched in the past two cycles. "As in the past two campaigns, four big states -- Pennsylvania, Michigan, Ohio and Florida -- are expected to dominate the attention of the candidates," the Post says.WSJ: McCain Campaign Expanding, Thanks To Interest In PalinThe Wall St. Journal reports that McCain campaign is boosting i...
