Funny thing that I may be the only one here to notice but I thought when the young black kid asked the question about the economic crisis to McCain.He responded by pointing the finger at Obama with Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. I thought it was offensive when he told the kid 'you've probably never heard of Fannie & Freddy before today".
That showed a lack of good judgement from McCain IMO, because that sentence resumed literally all the stereotypes about young black African-Americans by white America.
I think that slip might cost him lots of votes.
