Allen: Collins Put Wall Street First

Rep. Allen pounds Sen. Collins' record on economic issues:

This crisis is a vivid illustration of what happens when the federal government refuses to do responsible regulation and oversight of the financial markets. That is exactly what the Bush Administration and its allies like Susan Collins and John McCain have adopted--policies and positions that have led us to the edge of financial disaster...

The ideas widely held by the Bush Administration and its allies like Susan Collins and John McCain that the market will take care of itself without federal regulation and oversight have failed our middle class miserably...We need to change our economic policies in order to strengthen our middle class instead of feeding the superwealthy and big corporations.
