[/COLOR] However, if you want to deal in reality, lets take a look at John McCain (mr principles) as you state him to be and his connections to both Fannie and Freddie. The one thing John McCain is not in short supply of is chutzpah. Last week McCain was lying about former Freddie Mac CEO Franklin Raines advising Obama, both in his ads and on the stump.
