McCains campaign discussed 30 economic proposals and chose....none of them.

[Schulzz]

"Presented with 30 options for new economic measures, Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) has – at least for now – chosen none of them. His campaign had been planning to roll out new proposals this week that would be aimed at restoring confidence in financial markets and encouraging investors to return."

"But when the meeting ended, so did plans for a new economy push. The campaign now says no new policy announcements are planned. Participants in the meeting refused to say what happened. “We’re locked down,” said one official. Jackie Calmes of The New York Times, who first reported the plan’s collapse on Sunday night, pointed to “internal confusion” about the matter."

“At this point I don’t think McCain can say anything on the economy that will sound credible,” said Bruce Bartlett, a former economic adviser to President Ronald Reagan and President George Bush."

1. He mentioned one last week that kind of made sense to my wife and I, we both went hmm thats not bad.

It was when McCain was discussing the 401k divesteture rules.

At a certain age you have to start selling assets off out of the 401k and tuning them into cash and his comments were there should be a freeze on that mandate for right now to protect seniors so they wouldnt be forced to sell stocks into this destroyed market.

Made sense, kinda cool and than we both went hey wait a minute that age is 72.

John McCains only financial proposal that made sense in is own right and standing WAS MADE BECAUSE JOHN MCCAIN IS 72 AS OF AUGUST and when he said we should protect seniors from being mandated from selling off stock into this market he was saying WE NEED TO MAKE THE RULES SO JOHN MCCAIN DOESNT HAVE TO SELL HIS STOCKS right now.

DOH'! go figure.
