(dream with me)... Obama destroys Mccain at the debate on Keating, Davis, Gramm, etc

Imagine...

...they are talking about the economy or perhaps mccain is attacking obama for whatever...

...and then...



Obama: Senator Mccain's history shows a long pattern of bad judgment about the economy. He still maintains the same failed philosophy and approach he had back in the 80s bailout of banks... banks his associates had ties to and corruption which brought him before a senate committee to account for his lapses in ethical judgment and abuse of power.

This failed philosophy that says just deregulate everything and have the rich trickle down success fundamentally places faith in the wrong place. Senator Mccain didn't learn any of the lessons from the 80s bank crisis and that bail out. Our economy's engine is the middle class - not the rich, not the bankers and their lobbyists who continue to surround Senator Mccain.



Mccain: My friends, this is a disgraceful smear of my honor and reputation. I was cleared of all those charges back in the 80s. I have spent decades fighting for ethics reform, fighting off lobbyists, and nobody can question my integrity on that.

I find Senator Obama's attack childish and an indication of him having no real respect for true reform. This is a guy who himself has lots of shady associations and shouldn't be trying to attack my integrity. Your ties to Rezko, Raines, Ayers... it's disgraceful. You're in no position to attack me.



Obama: Well John, you can pretend you've changed your tune since the 1980s but you've been making the same failed arguments about the economy since then. And as for ethics, you've had to drop 3 co-chairs of your campaign for impropriety. Phil Gramm himself was involved with lobbying on behalf of mortgage holding banks while you repeated his calls that this was all psychological. You kept arguing that the economy was just fine...

John, it's your own campaign manager whose firm was taking in $15,000 a month for lobbying on behalf of fannie mac... up until last month. You can pretend he has severed ties with a firm where he's still an officer and still and owner, but the people aren't buying it.

You haven't learned the lesson, John. You didn't even know how many HOUSES you had when asked. We now know that you own 8 houses. How can you be aware of financial conflicts of interest when you don't even know the basics of your own finances? Were you aware of how many you owned when you fought to make folks like yourself able to leverage all your homes during bankruptcy filings rather than just your primary residence?



Tom Brokaw: Senator Obama, you're over the time limit...



Obama: John, you go out there telling americans to be responsible about their finances and you lecture washington on ethics violations, but here we are again, you're knee deep in another crisis, surrounded by lobbyists with their hands in the cookie jar.

You're selling more of the same, and America isn't buying it. They aren't buying your economic arguments, they aren't buying your smears about kingergarten sex ed, they aren't buying your smears about my being an unpatriotic american with ties to terrorism. Enough it enough. Your judgment on economics has always been for sale, sold back in the caboose of the straight talk express.

*dramatic pause*



Tom Brokaw: would you like to respond, Senator Mccain?

Nice work :)
