Why didn't you show concern when Democrats at Fannie Mae were building their house of cards on a shoddy business model, Ken? You dropped the ball when it was possible to avoid the mortgage meltdown. Now you want to criticize the plan McCain proposes to help clean up a mess created by Barney Frank, Maxine Waters, Pelosi and Chris Dodd.

Obama has received from troubled mortgage giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. $126,349 ($120,349 from employees and $6,000 from Political Action Committees or PACs) since he joined the Senate in 2005, according to the Center for Responsive Politics. His total is the second largest of any member of Congress, right behind Sen. Chris Dodd, D-Conn., at $165,400.

The proposal was no different than Obama's tax proposal, it was meant to get votes.It was a shame that they did not ask good questions last night, and when they did, the candidates once again did their side step and were permitted to do so.

Obama has yet to explain how he is going to accomplish what he saysy he is with only increasing the taxes on the upper 5%. It of course does not work...any middle class person that believes their taxes are not going up...(s)
