AMERICAblog: McCain's lobbyist problems continue - will Phil Gramm now resign?

    McBush isn't any different than the rest of the Bush administration. It will be the same "death, destruction, power, greed BS we had for the last 8 years. If he wins this election because of electoral votes and ANOTHER FIXED ELECTION, they will see something take place in this country that they never expected to see. Congress had 8 years, I said 8 years to fix this voting problem and did nothing. Diebold is still in use in some states and the same voting fraud is taking place. Everyone knows if McBush wins this election it will not be honestly. AMERICA IS SICK OF FIXED ELECTIONS AND WILL NOT STAND FOR ANOTHER ONE! LikeJesse Ventura's book title states, "Don't Start the Revolution Without Me." It's time for us to end the Boston Tea Party and bring back America to what she really stands for! Time for the filth and shame to be gone!

    Yes, regulation of business can cause growth to slow a bit, but if there had been a little more regulation of the mortgage business, the entire planet would not be melting down.

    With 118 lobbyists in his campaign, McBush wouldn't have anyone working for him if he fired everyone...

    All of this should be highly publicized.

    Let's see if the MSM is up to it...you know, the "liberal press."

    McCain is actually losing ground in the primaries and Ron Paul had his best showing yet.

    McCain would be worse than George Bush (if that's possible). His philosophy of governing is to just hand over the government to corporations -- and he's open about it.

    You know this is the second time McBush has had his hands into a fail banking system, the first was the Keating five, and now this, atleast he didn't lie, he hasn't a clue about the economy or how it works.

    When Truman was running for reelection, and no one, not even Bess, thought he had an icicle's chance in hell of beating Dewey, he kept hammering home on the campaign trail that if f Republicans (who already controlled Congress) control every branch of government, they will roll back every piece of New Deal legislation and that the economy would return to the boom/bust cycles that led to the Depression. It took them forty years, but Truman was right.

    Didn't the wife of this silly podunk redneck Phd dipshit serve on the Enron board before bailing for cover as the 7th largest US company collapsed amid criminal behavoiur, excessive greed and fraud? Sounds par for the course for this Elmer Fudd. As a Texas PG is near the top of the list of most corrupt a, disxcpecable and embarrassing Texas politicians. For preacher of the free market and less less government Phil Graham sure has made a,lot of money off his relationship with the government. Like Ted Haggard, Phil Graham is a lying hypocrite of the highest order. Phil Graham will wither away after he is pushed from the flow of big government dollars, as he has been feeding at corruption's trough entirely too long.

    McCain will continue the long slow slide downward for the United States.

    Chris, have you read Soros' book? The credit default swap market (("CDS") is the other shoe to drop. It is an unregulated $43 trillion insurance market. Scary shit.

    Wow! Is McCain so use to working with lobbyists that he doesn't see the problem here with Gramm?
