The discussion on the economic crisis was pretty irritating, but I guess I shouldn’t have expected much more. Obama indicates this is the result of the rich, the result of the middle class being ignored, etc. McCain is not nearly as helpful to himself as he could be, offering well-trod ground on special interests, lobbyists, cronyism, and cleaning up the system.

Obama: “Actually, I’m cutting more than I’m spending. I’m talking about an overall spending cut.” That statement stinks to me, but I’ll have to check the numbers.
