So let me get this straight. According to Obama the Bush administration's failed policies lead to the financial crisis so the Obama plan is to wait until the Bush administration announces its plan before he formulates his plan.

He is either waiting to see if his best play is to agree or criticize the admin's plan or his is a total loser. Of course he could be both waiting and a loser /sarcasm

That campaign has successfully, through no doing of their own, gotten the public’s attention onto the economy. If it stays there we will lose.

The attention has to be on women’s equality and the war on terror, and Iraq. The economy is not a winning issue for McCain. The focus groups make this clear.

The sooner the markets are off the front page, the better.
