My $0.02
Obama doesn't have a fix for the subprime mess, but neither does anybody else. It's a horrible mess that took years to make, and anyone who says they have a magic bullet is probably an idiot or a liar. At least Obama identifies probable causes and suggests long-term structural fixes.
I'll grant McCain a shred of integrity for not trying to tell us that less taxes for the wealthy and less regulation will fix everything. Maybe he's even smart enough to realize that the policies that got us here probably won't get us out.
Hillary is just trying the usual campaign trick of making promises based solely on their likely appeal to voters, without any regard to whether or not they could actually be delivered.
