Two names associated with McCain that voters should be reminded of: Carly Fiorina and Phil Gramm
Edited on Mon Jul-14-08 10:28 AM by brentspeak
What does it say about John McCain's economic plans for the nation when his two top economics advisers are 1) the former CEO who ran Hewlett-Packard into the ground; and 2) the former senator who helped run the nation's economy into the ground?

It doesn't matter that Gramm has now been kicked out of the McCain adviser spotlight; the important thing to point out is that McCain chose Gramm in the first place. That should say all that needs to be said about McCain's judgment.

Campaign ad:

"'There is no job that is America's God-given right anymore.' - McCain adviser, Carly Fiorina. (Cut to scene of Fiorina advocating Congress to allow more H-1B Visa guest workers)

'We have sort of become a nation of whiners, you just hear this constant whining' - McCain adviser, Phil Gramm. (Cut to scene of Gramm on the Senate floor, arguing on behalf of the "Enron loophole" legislation, which would eventually cripple much of the nation's economy.)

1. Their selection speaks volumes about the McSame campaign--elitist, out-of-touch,
and failures all.

And Ms. Fiorina has fans on this board... :puke:

4. A vote for McClown is a vote to continue the Bewsh corptocracy unabated.
And with these two idiots on his staff at that.

But will the middle/working/poor classes see this bit of info? Not likely, as we have no power over the broadcast message.

5. Add PNAC's Randy Scheunemann, McCain's chief foreign policy advisor, to the list!
