I think that you're exactly right, Ken; McCain is playing to
perceptions.Obama may be trying to allay our fears, but neither has
theconomic/financial cred to solve the problem. I'm afraid that if a
"bailout" is passed too quickly, it'll cause more problems than it fixes.

An unreasonable man (but my wife says that's redundant!)
