Change?!

First, this race is no longer between a candidate who advocates change and the status quo,as Democrats would like to frame it. It's between two different visions of change, and between a ticket that's actually delivered reform, and a ticket that just talks about it.

Also Lehman Brothers gave
Democratic presidential candidates and senators Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama top the list of all-time recipients for the company, collecting $410,000 and $395,600 respectively from Lehman Brothers.


Sen. Charles Schumer, D-N.Y., a member of both the Senate Banking, Housing and Urban Affairs Committee and the Senate Finance Committee, hauled in $181,450.


Lehman’s bankruptcy comes on the heels of the federal government takeover of government-sponsored mortgage buyers Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, whose associates were also big givers to Obama and Clinton.


Barack Obama has extensive ties to the subprime mortgage industry, starting with his National Finance Chairwoman, Chicago billionaire Penny Pritzker.


Somethings never CHANGE!

It didn't start that way, but it's turned into it. After being in class and listening to so many people voice their opinions and not being able to voice my own, my blog has turned into my opinions. So yeah, I guess it is a political blog until after the election =)
