Obama has "cronies" and they caused the economic mess? WTF? I doubt that's going to go over too well.

did he just say that the guy probably hadn't heard of FreddieMac and FannieMae before the crisis? Sounds really condescending to me.

watch McCain's pointing finger. WHen he mentions 'cronyism' and 'others who took a hike' etc he points to Obama. HE is trying to play nicer but his finger betrays him

"Cronies"

The indies seemed to have tuned out of his answer after that word, and only came back when he went positive again.

Obama's use of "not surprisingly" re: correcting McCain's history didn't go down great either, but the audience seems to give him more leeway for passing negativity.

McCain is such a jackass. He wants to deregulate for his pals like Keating.

Well, she was probably a bit nervous about being on millions of TVs, talking to a likely future president.

How's Keating Five working out for you?

Oh, and that was a nice exemption you had in the Finance Reform bill to allow you to fly your wife's company's jet around.

How's that $700B bailout with another $150B in pork? How's that $1 trillion for Iraq? How's all those earmarks for your pal Palin?

They might influence children to not become young-Earth creationists who think that humans and dinosaurs co-existed.

Okay I think it is safe to say that if the debate continues like this it is over for McCain.
