Far from "a total failure" in the opinion of many. Thinking of it, I've never seen any economist publically call it a "total failure" - do you know of one? Or is that just your personal opinion?

prove it. prove we'd have been in a depression had that not been passed. my recollection of that bill being pushed was it was to keep unemployment from going past 10%, which it did anyway...in other words, it DIDN'T accomplish what they said it would. and why would adding mccains chief campaign economist somehow give that remark credence? because he's from 'the other side'? i bet i could find other economists who would disagree...but then, I'D be cherry picking....god knows no one else pulls bits out of articles to back their points.
