This is a goldmine - Obama campaign needs to use this! (I guess this is a goldmine. I'm reading that Biden and Obama supported funds for the bridge) :(

McCain was talking about the bridge collapse in Minnesota and then went on to say that the funds earmarked for the Alaskan bridge would have been better used.....

On edit: have changed title of video - original title was from YouTube and totally inaccurate.

to the bridge in Alaska.

(I posted the title here exactly as it appeared on YouTube. Unfortunately, the title was totally inaccurate. It would have gotten more exposure had it been named "McCain criticizes bridge to nowhere funding" IMO)

3. i was referring to the bridge collapse in Minnesota.. caused by Episodic ReThug politics
had nothing to do with the AK bridge, funds were to come out of taxes in MN.. the ReThugs didn't want to raise taxes to fix the bridge just before an election.. so they put it off till after .. and murdered people with their politics, negligent homicide
