Raines should have no part in an Obama administration. I dont see a conviction on his record and of course you supply no links. Also, Dick Fuld should not be in mccains cabinet. He hasnt been charged with anything yet but excessive stupidity.

Raines worked for Fannie Mae as CEO from 1999 to 2004, during which Fannie Mae cooked their books to inflate executives' bonuses. In 2008, the executives including Raines, settled out of court for $3 million, of which NONE was paid for by the defendants. So tell me again why Obama has a man as economic advisor that cooked Fannie Mae's books to line his pockets with over $50 million? I figured Raines would have been thrown under the bus by now, of course Obama is waiting on his liberal media to do the story first... I am sure you have link for all this insight. I would sure like to see it.
