We f'd up Wall Street, so we can fix it.

Forget McCain’s “Fundamentals are Strong” speech, I like Sarah Palin’s “we’ll reform Wall Street” speech. This speech is interesting in that had it been delivered by a Democrat, it would have had credibility. But coming from a Republican?





“Our regulatory system is outdated and needs a complete overhaul. Washington has ignored this.” See what I mean? This would be a great quote coming from someone whose party didn’t control every branch of government for the last eight years. From someone whose party wasn’t primarily responsible for the deregulation of banking and housing markets. From someone whose CAMPAIGN employs the man who, if the housing market were a murder, would be convicted as an accessory (Phil Gramm). From anyone whose party didn’t have ties to Enron. Whose party didn’t inderectly cause the rolling black outs in California and the $5 gas at the pump. And now they want us to believe that they will bring about change. The man whose campaign is run almost entirely by lobbyists, is going to stand up to them when the time comes? Sure. This is further evidence that the McCain campaign believes it can say whatever it wants, truth be damned.
