What McCain meant yesterday when he said it's not the time to BLAME, he really meant BLAME EVERYONE ELSE BUT ME. He's turning into a joke and losing so much respect.

Any one who calls Pastor Wright his "Uncle" and has this Pastor educate their children with hateful, racists opinions is not a good father or leader. What about Obama's past voting record, are you people blind? What about all his socialist programs, do you want to become a socialist state. He has done nothing for this current crisis. He claims that he deserves all the credit on Sunday and Monday it fails, again, because the Democratic leaders failed to lead. Stop the bashing until you finally look at the history of both candidates and stop listening to the talking head Obama's promises.

These greedy corrupt companies need to have failure hanging over their heads, and the excuses for relieving them of the consequences of their actions are absurd. Orders for goods for the Christmas season--ridiculous--the Christmas stock has been out since July, the stores still have summer merchandise that they can't move no matter how many times they mark it down.Has anyone been in a store where the selves aren't brimming with inventory?The money should be used top help the people that did not fraudulently obtain a mortgage that they knew was over their heads.If they ran up too much credit card debt ,while I was going without because I could not afford it--let them sink.

I have not seen what the 25 years of experience brings to McCain's table if he continues to make bad judgement calls about everything. In just a few months he has criticized Barack about his lack of experience while he himself goes on to Flip Flop and then take Barack's stances, he also throws historic hissy fits, and lastly has selected a running mate that makes the unpopular GW Bush seem like the Albert Einstein of the decade! Imagine if he gets elected what headlines he will make! Obama and Biden are the only rational cool headed choices in this election.

The bail out is mostly for the rich so they can continue to live their lifestyle. All the big wigs should have to take a cut in pay (a very large one) to help pay the deficit and they should have to pay taxes and not have all the loopholes so they don't have to pay their fair share.

All residential mortgages across the US could be reduced to 5% (no refinancing or closing costs). This would reduce the average americans financial burden which in turn would increase their ability to spend which in turn would stimulate Wall Street. The Banks would still profit but at a lower rate which is better then foreclosing and taking huge losses. Then institute mandatory regulation on all new mortgages generated.
