Former Bush Treasury Secretary chides McSame on economy.

Thinkprogress:

In an interview with the Sunday New York Times Magazine, Paul O’Neill – President Bush’s former Secretary of the Treasury – sarcastically commented on McCain’s lack of preparation to lead on economic issues:

NYT: McCain recently confessed in public that his grasp of economics is limited.

O’NEILL: Yeah. That’s a great place to start from, isn’t it?
In 2004, O’Neill was reported in a book as saying that Bush lacked “credibility with his most senior officials,” while a “puppeteer” (Cheney) called the shots. Asked if he has spoken with Cheney recently, O’Neill said, “I have been to a few events where the vice president was there, but we both did our best to ignore each other.”
