AMERICAblog: 83 Wall Street lobbyists work for John McCain

  • lsoderman · 1 year ago
    \My only concern with this is whether the DNC has released their own stats on this. I've got to believe there are some lobbyists in the Obama campaign as well. If they really want to be strong on this point, they need to be able to release the same numbers about their own staff.

    It would be naive to think that there are no lobbyists/former lobbyists in the Obama camp. But as long as the number is significantly smaller than the Republicans, it should be a winning point.

    Dear Friend:

    Are you ready yet for the November 4th Elections? How about your friends, family, and neighbors?
    More Americans are expected to vote this year than ever before in history, so don’t be left out! Be sure to ask everyone you know the following questions:
    • Are you registered to vote? If you moved recently, have you updated your voter registration?
    • Did you apply for an Absentee Ballot? Do you know your state may not require any reason?
    • Can you find your local Polling Place? Do you know it may have changed from last time?
    The answers to these questions -- and all your voting needs -- can be found at www.StateDemocracy.org

    So where's the 527 TV ad, showing the head shots of these guys, and saying what they do, with perhaps a nice shot of The Old Man and Sister Sarah talking about how they are "Washington Outsiders" or how they will "take on the lobbyists"

    And while were at it, why no talk - absolutely no talk at all - about the Keating five scandal and McCain's role in it?

    Just because Obama says he doesn't want 527 ads, doesn't mean they can't be done.

    Um, aren't the subject and object of the title sentence reversed?
