He needs to get tough on her. She is all but completely ignoring him like she has this in the bag. He has been getting much more specific on his goals and policies lately and it's a refreshing break from his stump speeches.

Nice soundbite, for those who dont comprehend above
It's always nice to see someone like yourself have to jump in to defend Obama.

It was their choice and they paid the price for their choice too.

But this doesn't negate the role the banksters played who enabled it in the first place. They were quite happy to irresponsibly make loans they knew could never be paid back because the laws had changed to place the losses on the taxpayers backs instead of theirs.

Anyone who would deny this fact isn't informed. She and Bill have made millions peddling their political influence to the big banks.

They won't be voting for the Democrats who protected the banksters who got insanely rich while throwing people out onto the street.
Are they aware that it was the Dems who protected them?

Or is the DNC lying, as usual?

How so? Please be specific.

It was the democrats that enabled the banksters. If you doubt this, you should go look at the histories of those two bags of s___, Barney Frank & Chris Dodd. It was Dodd, who moved to restore the TBTF bankster bonuses which he slipped in the banking "reform" bill. (which didn't reform them at all)

How many of these guys were criminally investigated by the Obama run DOJ? Answer - 0.

That's on Clinton's HUD. Look at the Affordable Lending Goals:

Loan originators were giving HUD what they wanted... mortgage loans made to people who never should have qualified.

I'm agreeing with you.

Why the Wall Streeters, bankers, etc., who actually did act illegally didn't get prosecuted by Obama's DOJ or the SDNY (both heavily Dem, by the way):

Yep. The whole debacle is rooted in Bill Clinton's administration.
