He also said that reckless conduct on wallstreet is largely to blame for America's economical woes, so i dont believe he is clueless to what is going on in the economy.. but he could have chosen his words better.

Of course he's going to try and fix what he said yesterday (said it twice at two different rallies) just like any poltican would that was catching flack over something they said.

I thought he was going to take a stand on the AIG bailout because he said no to it orginally but now supports it, which is basically protecting the reckless conduct on Wall Street and of companies.
