We need a 'mediators' party. One that can make the republicans & democrats work together and agree on something for the common good and stop just pointing fingers at each other.

they've failed the American people....you've got that right!

a good example of Mc not addressing the real issues [does he know what the real issues are?]....now if he'd say "when I am President I will abolish the Federal Reserve, because they are causing much of our economic dilemna" I would then have great respect for him....but no, instead it's the old misdirection.....That's some pretty crooked straight talk rhetoric he's got going on....too bad he has no grasp of the situation....

McCain would 'fire' SEC chairman Cox

Republican presidential candidate John McCain, campaigning in Iowa Thursday, is expected to call for the firing of Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Chairman Chris Cox.

In his prepared remarks, Sen. McCain (Ariz.), without naming Cox, said the chairman has “betrayed the public’s trust.”

“If I were president today, I would fire him,” McCain will say, according to his prepared remarks.

As the crisis on Wall Street stretched further into the week with more uncertainty on the horizon, McCain lashed out at Democratic rival Sen. Barack Obama (Ill.) for staying “silent” when more regulation was needed.

McCain said he has been advocating changes in economic policies for years.
