1. He doesn't want his crowds to know that he did also
They probably haven't watched the news to know that he also voted for the same things. OR MORE LIKELY HE FORGOT THAT HE VOTED.

3. McCain in WI today
“Senator Obama was happy to bail out Bear Stearns, AIG, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac–his pals there–and the Democrats in Congress that refused to reform Freddie mac and enact legislation to stop this crisis but he is opposed to us helping the homeowners of America,” McCain said during a town hall in suburban Milwaukee. “Do you want to help the homeowners of America or do you want to help Wall Street? That’s the question here.”

--------------


It was the Bush Administration which decided to bail out those companies, not Obama.

6. I believe it was Obama who approached the powers that be -- a year, two years? ago --
to express concern regarding this very situation and request that something be done to prevent exactly what is happening now. He wrote a letter. Where's McCain's letter?

4. Wasn't that the reason he 'suspended' his campaign? To get back to DC and
provide the leadership to ensure that all the Congress -- across the aisle -- voted for this bill?

Is he having difficulty even remembering what he did a WEEK ago?
