Senator John McCain, from Arizona, is the Republican candidate for the Presidency. Foreclosure solutions from McCain are being discussed and argued upon. He stressed that governmental help should go to the foreclosure victims who lived in houses that were their homes and not to the speculators who had gambled. He wanted the financial sector to do all it can to prevent an economic collapse but in keeping with these priorities.

McCain was addressing the problem of the housing market in the worst foreclosure hit states of California, Arizona, Nevada and Florida. He claimed that he was not rigid but open to all suggestions – the primary purpose being help to troubled house owners. He was also for borrowers making sufficient down payments for mortgage loans. He said that any sort of help “should be focused solely on home owners – not people who bought houses for speculative purposes, to rent or as second homes.”

McCain strongly felt that it was not the work of the government to help and reward those who acted irresponsibly – whether these were big banks or small borrowers. The government support of help to the banking sector should be based entirely on preventing recurrence of risk that would place the financial system as a whole at risk together with the economy. He agreed to consider all suggestions weighing their costs and benefits.

McCain did not have anything to say about the assistance given by the Federal Reserve to JP Morgan Chase’s acquiring of Bears Stearns. This issue remained a big question mark unanswered.

Democrats are saying that McCain lacks all the skills one needs to bring back the country from the brink of recession. Senator Clinton has suggested a hold on foreclosures dealing with adjustable rate mortgages. Mortgages about to go bankrupt should also be taken into consideration. She also wanted borrowers to have a freer hand in suing the errant lenders.

Howard Dean, the chairperson of the Democratic Party said about McCain that instead of offering a solid well laid out plan to meet each layer of the foreclosure related crisis, McCain seems to have taken the same type of hands-off approach of President Bush – the stand that has led to this debacle. Critics are vociferous that such steps would prevent the market from correcting itself. Clinton went so far as to say that McCain sounds very much like Hoover. The call of the hour is changing the time-worn-out edifice of mortgage regulations.
