From McCain's interview:
"Scott Pelley asks McCain whether he thinks the country is in a recession. "Sure. [but] technically, I don't know?Americans today don't care about what the, quote, 'technical term' is," says McCain. "Unemployment is up. Wages are down. Home foreclosures are incredibly high, the worst in many, many, many years. All of the indicators that affect the American family, unemployment being up - those people, they don't care whether technically we're in a recession or not. Fact is they're hurting and they are hurting very, very badly," he says."
Seems most everyone except Wayne agrees with this. I'd imagine it would tough voting for someone you disagree with on an issue that is so eternally, aggressively defended.
