The Obama campaign's response to the comprehensive plan Hillary Clinton laid out to address the housing crisis today was not to discuss their disagreement with her proposal, but to assert that Clinton has received contributions from subprime loan companies.

Considering that Obama has received $1.18 million from subprime lenders and has taken more campaign contributions from the top ten issuers of subprime loans, his attack rings hollow as just words. Obama has a record of talking about standing up to special interests and then caving to their demands. Hillary Clinton has a 35-year record of standing up to special interests and delivering results.
