The Reformer for Change -- who's been doing what exactly? in the US Senate for 26 years -- has 83 lobbyists for Wall Street working in his campaign.
[T]he Democratic National Committee, using publicly available records, has identified 177 lobbyists working for the McCain campaign as either aides, policy advisers, or fundraisers.
Of those 177 lobbyists, according to a Mother Jones review, at least 83 have in recent years lobbied for the financial industry McCain now attacks. These are high-paid influence-peddlers who have been working the corridors of the nation's capital to win favors and special treatment for investment banks, securities firms, hedge funds, accounting outfits, and insurance companies.

"Change is coming", huh?
In a related story, McDumbass (no, not Bush this time) says he would fire SEC chairman Christopher Cox.
Then hire him as campaign adviser.
Kidding.
