I agree that McCain better jump on the economy.
Something I’d like to see in an ad...
“When the democrats took over Congress in 2006 (Bush’s 6th year of his presidency) unemployment was at 4.5%. Home values were up. New home sales were up. Consumer confidence was up. Gas prices were just $2.33 a gallon. What has happened since the democrats have taken charge? Since january over 600,000 Americans have lost their jobs. Paychecks are flat. Home values are falling.It’s now hard to pay for gas, heating oil and groceries. What’s changed? We didn’t have these problems back in November 2006. Back then it was unthinkable that Americans would have to take out a mortgage in order to pay for the winter’s heating oil just to stay warm. The only change between November 2006 and now is that the democrats have had control of Congress.”
The underlying factors of todays Wall Street turmoil were wel under way by 2006.
This started in the mid 90’s under Former Clinton Crony and Current Economoic Adviser to 0bama, Franklin Raines.
FNMA started borrowing cash, using the TAXPAYER as guarantor, and financed trillions in loans by unqualified borrowers (all the while paying themselves huge bonuses).
You said it pretty concisely. All we need is another four years of Nancy with Mr. Empty Suit to make it complete. Yes, we are worse off since the Democrats took over control of Congress.
Yep. McCain needs to start running against the democratic congress, because that’s where obama lives. Run against congress - no drilling, fannie / freddie, etc. and show people how obama voted and benefited.
