BAM! Expect Senator Obama to repeat this during the debate…
So now it looks like the Republican dicking around has to do with McCain wanting more deregulation shoehorned into the bailout plan. McCain being the head of the party and all, it makes sense that the House leadership would rally around that.
KATIE COURIC: And, Bob, I understand that John McCain actually floated an alternative plan. What can you tell us about that?
BOB ORR: We’re told at the White House Senator McCain offered an alternative plan that would include fewer regulations and more corporate tax breaks for businesses, kind of a private solution. But we’re also told those ideas angered and surprised Democrats like banking chairman Chris Dodd who now says he thinks the White House summit was more of a political stunt for McCain.
If Senator Obama can trick McCain into admitting this during the debate… Oh man.
