"Bush will be blamed and Obama will benefit. This is not good news. It keeps the crisis on the front page and lets Dems/Obama and the DBM to perpetuate the Bush (ergo McCain) blame.

"There should definitely be an investigation, but it should start in earnest AFTER the election.

" Wait a minute. The two previous heads of these agencies BOTH are liberal appointees and BOTH had to resign with Raines being found guilty of impropriety and forced to give up a pile of his pay package. There is ample records of Democrats blocking attempted tightening of the regulation by Republicans and John Mccain who himself proposed regulations to do this tightening which was also procedurally blocked by the Democrats.

Re: Post 84.

Absolutely the truth - agreed. But the truth does not seem to matter. It’s perception and appearances that count. Otherwise, how in the world would an empty suit like Obama sit where he is at this point in time?

Perception: Financial crisis under Bush’s watch = blame the GOP, ergo blame McCain. Hate it, but that’s reality.

There’s just no way the DBM is going to throw Obama and his buddies under the bus before the election. Oh, afterward, they’ll wring their hands and commiserate, “Oh, if we had only known, we would have investigated/reported.”
