The McCain campaign is doing their best to turn the story about the leader of Obama’s VP search committee, Jim Johnson receiving a mortgage loan from Countrywide into a major scandal. The Obama campaign called McCain’s huffing and puffing, “an overblown story about what appear to be completely above-board transactions.”
Barack Obama launched his two week tour of swing states in Raleigh, NC today where he talked about talked about his own short term economic proposals and John McCain.
The Republican National Committee released a statement today that claimed because of Jim Johnson’s loans from Countywide, the Obama campaign is full lobbyists and corporate insiders. “Barack Obama routinely rails against lobbyists and corporate insiders, yet his campaign is stocked with both.”
