"In Dec 2000 then Texas Republican Senator Phil Gramm placed a provision (in the actual dead of night) into a bill which exempted energy sales from regulation if such sales were made electronicly."

Phil did a lot of that before he cast his lot in private industry. The fact that almost all of that legislation has turned out to be a very bad idea doesn't seem to make much difference.

"Phil Gramm is McCain's principal economic advisor."

Phil and his wife Wendy are two of the biggest crooks ever to hit Washington. Which would mean a McSame administration would hit the ground stealing..
