I need some answers here… If our economy was fundamentally strong, then wouldn’t the 150 year old giant Lehman Brothers be strong enough to weather this? Wouldn’t middle class wages be going up instead of down? Wouldn’t huge multi-billion dollar companies be able to stay afloat without government intervention or taxpayer bailout? Wouldn’t our health care system not have nearly 50 million people uninsured? Wouldn’t we be creating jobs instead of losing them? Wouldn’t our national debt be under control?

I know McCain is trying to change his answer to “people and their ideas” are strong, but that sounds like a cheap political copout and is contradictory since having strong people and strong ideas in management would prevent these huge companies from crashing, wouldnt it?
