McCain's bold new mortgage plan isn't new. Sounds like he still hasn't read the Paulson plan

Except his idea isn't so new; it's part of the $700 billion bailout package approved by the Senate and signed by the president last week.

It was all over the news. Right in between the stories about the Dow crashing 1,700 points and the campaign ads about Sen. Barack Obama's terrorist pals.

"I know how to do that, my friends," McCain said. "And it's my proposal, it's not Sen. Obama's proposal, it's not President Bush's proposal."

The problem, of course, is that it is President Bush's proposal. At least, it's Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson's proposal. It's the heart of the $700 billion plan.

He's too busy slandering people and trying to incite folks against the 'big scary black man' with the Arab middle name to actually READ something he voted for.

How lame-o was that?
