I hope Americans are beginning to understand that Democratic give a way programs that bankrupted Fannie and Freddie will also bankrupt America too if Democrats and especially Obama are given control of the White House.

The masses hate Wall Street and blame their problems on the rich. Populism has always been popular. That is why it is so easy for the MSM and the Dems to mislead them. They will believe them now about this disaster.

Skim the financial threads on SI and you'll find a huge plurality convinced this is solely the fault of:

1. Reagan's deregulation

2. The Fascist, totalitarian, GWB

3. Six years of Republican control

Opinions by the ton, knowledge by the milligram.

It's the job of the politicians to explain the subprime mess so all Americans can understand exactly how this whole thing got started and who was asleep at the switch when our economy fell of a cliff. If they fail to explain this adequately to America then journalists and news programs must. Unfortunately for us, the 5th estate is in even more pathetic state than the economy. The vast majority of fault lies in democrat hands through the pressure brought on the banks and GSEs to make these impossible loan packages, while the GOP enabled them all the while....
