McLame accused Obama of "gaming the system." Can we please play the Keating 5 card now?!
"My friends, this is the problem with Washington,'' McCain says. "People like Senator Obama have been too busy gaming the system and haven't ever done a thing to actually challenge the system.''

4. HAHHAHHAH!!!!! What is he talking about? McLame has been gaming it for 25 years plus!
That is too funny. I just am laughing here, will anyone besides Freeper types believe that??? Maybe they will but still. Obama has been there less than 4 yearsa nd his "gaming the system". Yeah, and I got a bridge to nowhere to sell ya.

6. And not only that. What about
his wife's massive assets -- the ones they refuse to make public in her tax return? The ones that he is refusing to disclose how they'll be handled (to avoid conflict of interest) until AFTER the election?

8. Olbermann in passing mentioned the Keating Five last night. I think it was his not so subtle hint
that Obama has to use it.

10. not to mention the fact that
McCain is gaming the system even though he is taking public financing. I really wish that Feingold would say something. He said last week at a Georgetown appearance "I've been told to stop saying nice things about McCain", or something to that effect...you would think that he wouldn't need any encouraging. I mean, the war hero stuff is fine, but I'm still kind of disappointed with his "he would make a good president" on CNN. You would think that he would be disgusted at what a lying piece of trash McCain has become.
