McCain says economic 'fundamentals' strong, Obama attacks

John McCain Monday insisted US economic "fundamentals" were strong despite a banking crisis and Wall Street meltdown, prompting a scathing rebuke from his White House foe Barack Obama.

"Senator McCain, what economy are you talking about?" Democratic candidate Obama said after the Lehman Brothers bankruptcy sent fear across the globe and spooked investors, wiping 500 points off the Dow Jones Industrial Average.

--snip--

Later, in his second event of the day, in Orlando, McCain stuck by his "fundamentals" argument, but said he was talking about the contribution US workers made to turn the American economy into a global powerhouse.

"Our workers are the most innovative, the hardest working, the best skilled, most productive, most competitive in the world. My opponents may disagree, but those fundamentals of America are strong."


Wouldn't the passage of the EFCA, which would strengthen the ability of US WORKERS, (by McCain's own description the "strength" in our "economic fundamentals")to join a Union which would provide the "hardest working, best skilled, most productive, most competitive workers in the world" the opportunity to bargain for better wages, benefits, retirement security, etc?

Would that not further STRENGTHEN our already "strong fundamentals"?
