No, katablog… sub-prime loans are not at the bottom of the crisis. This crisis is a merger of many different types of crises, to include the sub-prime issue. This is a shared crises by both Dems and Repubs. The problem is the culture of this crisis resides with the Republicans and their deregulation, free-market, as long as things go well there will be no oversight. And yes, I can easily admit how the Barney Franks did not help things out.

We are at a philosophical crossroads with regard to how we run our national finances and keeping tabs on such issues. Oversight was not exactly practiced by the Republicans these past 14 years…

Jaycee — I would presume you would want the same for McCain, right? A list of his unsavory associations that could also be gone over by Obama. I mean, full disclosure on both sides should be what we all crave in this election.

Someone 75 — I am more afraid of election stealing as was on display in Florida and Ohio (2000 and 2004, respectively. Voter fraud, etc. Look up the name Michael Connell (or Mike Connell).

People on this website blather on about ACORN without doing a d*mn bit of research into which party dabbles in voter fraud more than the other. (Hint: Refugs). You also may want to read about the ACORN in Nevada, the cooperation of ACORN and why a crackdown has occurred. Probably not exactly what you thought it was about…

Here’s the thing, with the recent economic crises, Obama has been slow and steady. McCain has been erratic. People, on both sides, are paying attention. And are leaning towards the one who has acted calm and cool all along.
