McCain tells Grand Rapids audience economy can be fixed

GRAND RAPIDS -- The auto industry and Wall Street took center stage in the presidential race today when Republican John McCain, after touring a suburban Detroit auto plant, declared in his strongest language so far that he will fight for government loans to help the American auto industry retool.

... He told a crowd of supporters in a question and answer session in downtown Grand Rapids that the economy can be fixed.

... “I’m here to send a message to Washington and Wall Street: We are not going to leave the workers here in Michigan hung out to dry while we give billions in taxpayer dollars to Wall Street,” McCain said. “It is time to get our auto industry back on its feet. It’s time for a new generation of cars and for loans to build the facilities that will make them.”

Is there some limit to McCain's generosity with OPM?
