(public)
Questioner: 'I actually did' know Fannie October 09, 2008 3:34 PM From NBC's Michael Levine I tried to get in touch via Facebook with Oliver Clark, the man who McCain said probably didn't know what Fannie Mae was before the financial crisis (at Tuesday's debate).

Throwing the kitchen sink is fun because it makes a lot of noise when it shatters against an opponent's head, particularly when the sink is full of dirty dishes.
