So what's this new crap about Obama's VP vetter the McCain camp is throwing out?
I've heard they're now alledging that a member of his VP search committee (who it has been known was employed Fannie-Mae) was also implicated in the coruption there. But wasn't it also the case that this man, I believe Johnson was his last name, left Fannie-Mae as far back as 1998?
But didn't he leave as far back as 1998? And isn't there no evidence that he benefited from any corrupt activity, unlike Raines (who never gave advice to Obama)?
And even then, there stands no evidence of him benefitting from any wrong-doing. And even then, he is only one man in comparison to at least twenty lobbiests on McCain's campaign with ties to Fannie-Mae or Freddie-Mac.
6. McCain Trying To Distract From Charlies Black and Ricky Davis
Who are prominent high level CURRENT members of McCain's campaign, who were also longtime lobbyist for Fannie Mae and Freddie-Mac. McCain is trying to avoid pressure to fire them given his rhetoric about firing Chris Cox.
No matter how much some pundits try and shift that to looking like "the elites dismiss it but average Americans like McCain's forcefulness," he was trying to scape-goat someone for the failed policies he's championed for years.
