McCain needs to say, in response to the ‘how can we trust you with our money’ question, “by letting you keep more of your money.”

Let’s hope Mac comes back on on Barry’s admission that Dems were part of the problem, and the scary image of Democrat control of both houses of Congress and the Presidency.

McCain is stumbling and the format is hurting him. Brokaw changes the subject after both respond to the question.

Obama talks about energy. He gives little in specifics. McCain nailed him earlier on this a plan to drill off shore.

Obama Urges Bernanke, Paulson to Fight Foreclosures, Hold Homeownership Summit

Thursday, March 22, 2007

Dear Chairman Bernanke and Secretary Paulson,

There is grave concern in low-income communities about a potential coming wave of foreclosures. Because regulators are partly responsible for creating the environment that is leading to rising rates of home foreclosure in the subprime mortgage market, I urge you immediately to convene a homeownership preservation summit with leading mortgage lenders, investors, loan servicing organizations, consumer advocates, federal regulators and housing-related agencies to assess options for private sector responses to the challenge.

————snip

* What standards investors should require of lenders, particularly with regard to verification of income and assets and the underwriting of borrowers based on fully indexed and fully amortized rates.

* How to facilitate and encourage appropriate intervention by loan servicing companies at the earliest signs of borrower difficulty.

* How to support independent community-based-organizations to provide counseling and work-out services to prevent foreclosure and preserve homeownership where practical.

* How to provide more effective information disclosure and financial education to ensure that borrowers are treated fairly and that deception is never a source of competitive advantage.

* How to adopt principles of fair competition that promote affordability, transparency, non-discrimination, genuine consumer value, and competitive returns.

* How to ensure adequate liquidity across all mortgage markets without exacerbating consumer and housing market vulnerability.
