UDATE 2: You'll know McCain's scoring if the Dems start insisting this crisis is too serious to be playing "politics as usual;" that we should be "putting politics aside," "coming together as a nation" etc.
UPDATE: McCain seems finally to have gotten the message.
Try as I might to resist, I get the sinking feeling Barack Obama will be our next president. The Frannie disaster is owned by the Democrats; it's theirs, they have title to it and there is plenty of damning footage to prove it. Yet, so far, the Republicans seem loathe to hammer the Democrats mercilessly on this issue, as they should, and I cannot fathom why (are they afraid of incurring the wrath of Barney Frank?).
Happily, the ad above has just been released by the GOP and it goes a long way toward establishing Democratic culpability for the financial crisis. If the Republicans air it continually, from now to Election Day, they just might stand a chance. People are furious about this fiasco and would love to punish the perpetrators if it can just be made clear who they are. This ad does that, finally.
