Barack Obama is going to take a decisive "wait and see" stance on the whole thing - just like his courageous, crusading days in the Illinois State Senate

There is a big difference between Deal Reached and Deal been voted on and passed. There was never a doubt that a deal would be reached by those writing the deal. All the crooks are on c span2 live now

One small problem.

He can't pay for his stuff unless he raises taxes for everyone.

Nice to see he is promising the "Free choice act" which will bring US labour back to the good old days when the mob ran the unions. Pro-worker my ass.

What is "fair-trade" again?

Yes I'm sure the employers organisations opposing it are just looking out for the workers, people with such sterling pro-worker records as Wallmart..

This isn't about dissecting Obamas plan it's about the wall street bailout I posted that to shut someone up who suggested he had no plans or ideas


Johnny looks rather stupid now, a deal having been reached before he has his first meeting, his campaign not actually having been suspended, and the debate still on.

The question "where is the all the money going to come from" is a very valid one. Mr. Obama and Mr. McCain plan to spend spend spend in all areas of the economy. The question is, which candidate has the most outrageous speding plans...

McCain: balance the budget by 2012, 100 year War in Iraq, War in Iran...

Obama: $50bn "stimulus", universal healthcare, massive green energy investment...

So either both candidates have found a mountain of gold somewhere in the States, or they'll be taxing the hell of their people. Or they could just resort to this...
