“I am not vetting my VP search committees for their mortgages.”
That’s what Barack Obama said after it was revealed that one of the three people on his vice presidential candidate search troika, Jim Johnson, was revealed to have gotten sweetheart loans from Countrywide Financial, one of the top aiders and abetters of the subprime crisis.
Desired answer?
Somebody.
Kind of a stumble for Obama there.
Yes, his past loan history may be irrelevant to the job he’s doing for Obama right now.
But, it’s not at all irrelevant to Obama’s campaign image.
