The Great Debate: McCain vs McCain
"At the center of the problem were the lobbyists, politicians, and bureaucrats who succeeded in persuading Congress and the administration to ignore the festering problems at Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Using money and influence, they prevented reforms that would have curbed their power and limited their ability to damage our economy. And now, as ever, the American taxpayers are left to pay the price for Washington's failure." - John McCain, Green Bay, Wisconsin.
"Fannie cooked the books and Johnson made millions. Then Obama asked him to pick his VP and raise thousands for his campaign." - McCain ad, September 19.
"The lobbying firm of the man Republicans say John McCain has chosen to begin planning a presidential transition earned more than a quarter of a million dollars this year representing Freddie Mac, one of the companies McCain blames for the nation's financial crisis." - Bloomberg news service

george will came out with a column today saying that even if one buys the obama is inexperienced line, experience can be gained, although often expensively, while temperment is static.
george will, mcCain is tempermentally unsuited for the job of president.
I've always said that effective campaign commercials would be video of McCain then and McCain now, saying the opposite things.
Jon Stewart did that last week, "Boy I'd love to be in the cloakroom when those two meet!"
Commercials on McCain's role in the Keating 5 scheme has got to be outlined, especially with today's intentionally manufactured financial crisis.
