Phil Gramm spotted at McCain event

From CNN Political Producer Peter Hamby


"Gramm was spotted at a McCain event Thursday."

ASPEN, Colorado (CNN) – For the first time since removing himself from John McCain’s campaign, former Sen. Phil Gramm publicly crossed paths with the presumptive Republican nominee at an event Thursday in Aspen.

Gramm stepped down from his role as co-chairman of McCain’s campaign in July after Democrats assailed him for telling a newspaper that the country was in a “mental recession” and describing the United States as “a nation of whiners.”

Gramm and his wife had front row seats for a conversation today between McCain and Walter Isaacson, the president of the Aspen Institute. The event was put on by the Aspen Institute and not the McCain campaign.

Along with Gramm, other McCain allies in attendance included top campaign adviser Charlie Black, South Dakota Sen. John Thune, South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham, Utah Gov. Jon Huntsman, and Lewis Eisenberg, national finance chairman for the Republican National Committee’s Victory '08 campaign.

3. Jesus, its looking bad with the bank failures and yet none of the MSM are talking much about it

Are we going to have a complete meltdown on Monday? If McCain does get elected and Phil Gramm is his financial guru we are majorly done in for. They will be worse then Shrub. Our economy will be completely destroyed.
