From his straightforward vision for the short-term economy statement from Monday 10/13/08:
“At a time when the ups and downs of the stock market have rarely
been so unpredictable and dramatic,” Mr. Obama said, “we also need to
give families and retirees more flexibility and security when it comes
to their retirement savings.”
Mr. Obama reprimanded his audience

declaring: “We don’t need that. We just need to vote.”
Mr.
Obama praised Mr. McCain’s proposal to waive the rules that penalize
retiree withdrawals from 401(k)’s, saying: “I want to give credit where
credit is due.”
