3. PHIL GRAMM is his name...
...make sure you lead with his name.

PHIL GRAMM is the chief author of the GRAMM-LEACH-BLILEY ACT, the act that set the stage for this massive financial meltdown by de-regulating the industry -- and PHIL GRAMM is the Chief Economic Advisor to JOHN McCAIN's campaign!

There you have it folks, PHIL GRAMM broke it, now let him OWN his FAILURE. And JOHN McCAIN hired him, so JOHN McCAIN OWNS IT TOO.
