McCain has identified a man for his potentional transition team whose job, as a lobbyist, was to lobby Barny Franks on behalf of Freddie Mac? That's awful bi-partisan of him.

That's thinking small. What he really needs is a CEO...maybe from Fannie Mae, like Barack chose to help with his VP search, before he threw Jim Johnson under the bus. Great judgment by Barack. Or was it his staff who was responsible for picking Jim Johnson? "We're going to go through a process in the vice-presidential search where I look at a whole range of options. <b>This is one of the most important decisions I can make, and I think I'll signal how I want to operate my presidency."</b> (Barack Obama, Interview With NBC's Brian Williams, 6/4/08) Joe Biden is shaping up to be the VP pick that everyone hoped he would be. Most people pay good money for this kind of entertainment value. Lobbyist?
