In a maneuver that epitomizes the illogical construction of Senator McCain and his campaign, McCain's camp blames Obama on bailout failure. Let me see if I can get this straight... um, Senator McCain tries a publicity stunt by "suspending his campaign" (itself a lie, but not germane to this point), rushing back to Washington to "broker a deal," fails to persuade 2/3 of his own party (not that they were ever pursuadable) to back the bill, and this becomes Obama's fault? The stink of desperation is all over this. It is so insanely illogical... wait, that may be the answer. It is insane.

A well reasoned argument is like a diamond: impervious to corruption and crystal clear - and infinitely rarer.

Here, as elsewhere, people are outraged at what feels like a rigged game -- an economy that won't respond, a democracy that won't listen, and a financial sector that holds all the cards. - Robert Reich
