Re: 2nd Presidential Debate

McCain would do better if he just let SP show and do his debates.

He looked awkward walking aroung the room last night.

To me his arguments are getting old.

I can say nothing positive about Obama as well.

Is this the best we have to offer in this country?

Where have all the Ronald Reagon's gone?

Re: 2nd Presidential Debate

I hate to say it, I REALLY do, but I think McCain is toast!

I predict that the polls wills continue to show Obama gaining ground and McCain and Palin will go on the attack even more because that is all they can do at this point.

I'm certainly not a liberal and I'm not for Obama in any way, I just think it's over and the Libs will get what they want and hopefully it will sicken America so much that they will go back to conservatism.

I totally don't agree.

The sad thing is we were one election away from really fundamentally changing the supreme court.

Ferd,
Do you actually think everyone, besides the liberals, were happy about Obama's unapologetic mandating of health insurance? He agreed that is what he wants. He never denied not imposing a fine.

this is a newer approach that isnt part of the bailout package but is a novel idea to keep people in their homes and help stablize home prices.

I am not sure who came up with the idea first, but McCain seems to be making this a centerpiece pitch.

which is going to make conservitives mad. Basically he is saying to the idiots who got loans they couldnt afford that he is going to fix thier idocy.

Basically it works like this, the Treasury buys these distressed assets.
Then they identify the loans that are really bad where the home owner is in default, cant make the payment and the value of the house has fallen below the amount of the loan.

Then Treasury renegotiates the terms, lowering the acutal face value of the loan (Lets say the borrowed 150K but now the house is worth 100K they take the 150k loan and turn it into a 100k loan). Then the home owner may be able to afford the new lower face value loan (that will also have a much lower interest rate as well) and can keep the house, and pay the new loan.

on face value I think this is a terrible idea. and I think I heard that it will cost 300 BILLION bucks.

..and that was the one quiet dig that McCain delivered - "how much will the fine be?"
