"In light of the collapse of Fannie and Freddie, both John McCain and Barack Obama now criticize the risk-tolerant regulatory regime that produced the current crisis. But Sen. McCain's criticisms are at least credible"

Now that's hilarious.

Somehow we went from McCain on Monday (the 15th) saying that "the fundamentals of the economy are strong" to Hank Paulson saying a couple days later that the economy was on the
"verge of collapse".

On Tuesday, McCain wanted to form a "commission" of some kind...also on Tuesday (the 16th) that AIG should NOT get a bailout to Yes! AIG needs to be bailed out!

McCain was all over the map

George Will has an excellent column which really characterizes the Hobbesian nature of this election.

Exactly why, as each day passes, I grow ever more happy with my decision to vote for NEITHER of the major-party candidates.

A pox on both their houses.
