Obama and McCain commercials BOTH unconnected to Street needs

McCain’s bashing of Obama’s nonexistent Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac ties AND Obama’s middle-class tax cut shibboleth commercial both have nothing to do with Wall Street’s worries and possible fixes, as Walter Shapiro notes. Unfortunately, as he also discusses, Americans may have their eyes glaze over at too much discussion of financial issues, despite middle-class investments in the Street through 401(k) and IRA accounts and more.
