Gramm's "whining" remarks spoken over images of foreclosed homes, Enron, etc. And the words, "John McCain's lead economic advisor Phil Gramm is the architect of the 'Enron loophole', which is still destroying America's economy today."

1. I so agree -- I've been saying this for weeks

I don't get it! Someone please explain why they are not doing this. "Axelrod is a genious" per Begala. My head is shaking.

They should construct an ad theme and then play it over and over -- not because we want to smear McCain but because they are McCain's own words. As an aside, I was surprised to hear the McCain was so deeply connect to Graham, especially since he did originally oppose the tax cuts.

2. SECOND that!
I can not believe the gall of that man, parading Gramm around as his financial adviser, saying he would appoint him treasury. WTF????

He deregulated the banks, his wife sat on the board of Enron and they pocketed millions....he called us whiners and he and McCain both said (last week!) the "fundamentals of the economy are strong". suddenly mccain is stealing Obama's message about the economy?

but he still has this asshat on his team. AND McCain and all Republicans but one voted YES on gramm's special bill that has brought this nation to her knees. Not ONE dem voted yes.

ASSHATS.

They lie.
