I'm not sure the McCain campaign could have picked a better time to roll-out this web advertisement. People are soooo positive on investing, right now.

1. WTF is a "compliance fund"?
I'm no expert in these political terms. But that sounds sorta kinky. Is it to buy Sarah some whips and chains and leather skivies so she can whip McPOW into line?
