Especially listening to Barney Frank and Maxine Waters wanting low interst fix rate loans for those being foreclosed because they got exotic loans. I did a foreclosure and it took 8 years to fix my credit enough to get a house at a higher rate than I wished. I have no sympathy for them. The idea of 700 billion dollars to Wall Street without something better for the taxpayer is a poison pill!

She is an appallingly dimwitted person suited to small town politics only and has no knowledge or depth to face the problems of a country like America. She knew NOTHING and her answers were incoherent at best. Her executive experience was nothing when she spent 312 days at home and not in Juneau where her job actually was. Her colleagues even had buttons printed with "Where's Sarah?" to protest her frequent long absences from her job as governor.Politics in Alaska has NOT prepared her for VP or POTUS, not at all. Her intelligence level just doesn't even give her the capacity to grasp all she would need to know and to reason and make decisions required of her in a position of such power. At least on that score I have utter and complete faith in Obama's abilities and his judgement has been consistently superior.

After hearing his interview I had to get more info on him, Joe's the man and oddly enough the subject of his career-ending gaffe chose him as VP.

Obama has been stating over and over what should be done to help with this economic 'crisis'. He is willing to show the public what his solutions are in front of the whole world by debating McCain on friday. The unfortunate thing is that this is only a crisis because people have not paid attention to the concerns for the last 10 years. It's like not brushing your teeth and having a 'crisis' because you have a bad cavity that needs root canal. How many more 'root canals' do we need to finally understand that Bush's policies are not working? McCain is clueless and bi-polar. He calls himself a maverick because he couldn't beat Bush. He says he puts country first, yet he doesn't want to address the country. To the people that say that if there was an attack today, we would call McCain's act respectful. Not true. When 9/11 happened, Bush addressed the country the same day. It would be perfectly fitting that a President-hopeful addresses the country- in this situation, via a debate.

Where is Obama's? Biden always says the same thing. The other guy's plan is notable for what it is lacking. Hey Joe, no plan is lacking everything! Why should we listen to a person whose latest gaff is that FDR spoke to the country on TV during the 1929 stock market crash? FDR was not the president in 1929 and commercial TV didn't start until after his death. Well, what can we expect from a person caught plagiarizing part of a speech in the 1988 presidential compaign.
