The Tie Breakers

Here are the tie breakers:

1. Obama's claim that McC opposes "equal pay for equal work"

http://www.di2.nu/200809/12c.htm ("Sexist Democrats")

"Obama’s average male employee earned $54,397. Obama’s 30 female employees split $1,354,580 among themselves, or $45,152, on average.

McCain’s 17 male staffers split $916,914, thus averaging $53,936. His 25 female employees divided $1,396,958 and averaged $55,878."

 Biden is even worse than Obama!

2. Obama's claims that economic troubles can be traced to policies McC supported.

http://www.govtrack.us/congress/record.xpd?id=109-s20060525-16&bill=s109... (FEDERAL HOUSING ENTERPRISE REGULATORY REFORM ACT OF 2005) Excerpt of McCain's comments:

"I join as a cosponsor of the Federal Housing Enterprise Regulatory Reform Act of 2005, S. 190, to underscore my support for quick passage of GSE regulatory reform legislation. If Congress does not act, American taxpayers will continue to be exposed to the enormous risk that Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac pose to the housing market, the overall financial system, and the economy as a whole. I urge my colleagues to support swift action on this GSE reform legislation." May 26, 2006

3. Obama on the Fannie Mae Freddie Mac payroll. Seven of the top ten recipients are Democrats.

Obama: $126,000 in four years; McCain: $22,000 in nineteen years
