From FactCheck.org :
Richardson stands out for exaggerated and inaccurate claims.
Summary
In the final Democratic debate in Iowa, we found:
Richardson claimed “enormous progress” in New Mexico education, when in fact the state’s eighth-grade reading scores have slipped and remain among the worst in the U.S.
Richardson exaggerated the extent to which his state’s teacher salaries increased.
Richardson said one-third of U.S. health care spending goes to “administration and bureaucracy,” but Medicare officials put the figure at 7.4 percent.
Dodd criticized “the Chinese government” for slave labor, when in fact it just sentenced a slaver to death.
Dodd said University of Iowa costs have gone up 141 percent in six or seven years; we find they rose 81 percent.
Obama claimed Medicare would save “a trillion dollars” if fewer Americans were obese. We find little support for that figure.

This seems like a must-read to me. The guy who administered Chris Dodd’s sweetheart mortgage tells the Wall Street Journal that Dodd is lying. Too bad Republicans won’t control Congress next year. They might actually hold hearings on this stuff. From the editorial:
The Connecticut Senator has been out front denouncing the "companies that form the foundation of our financial markets," for "their insatiable appetite for risk." He has also decried "reckless, careless and sometimes ... more
Make Dodd Testify From: sundriesshack.com Post Date: 2008-10-10 06:17:57
The Wall Street Journal today says that Congress needs to get Chris Dodd under oath about the sweetheart deals he got from Countrywide Mortgage and the influence they had on his dealings with Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, Countrywide’s biggest benefactors. It seems that someone has the good on him and the WSJ thinks it’s high time those goods became public.
Former Countrywide Financial loan officer Robert Feinberg says Mr. Dodd knowingly saved thousands of dollars on his refinanc... more
Instead of appearing on Keloland to answer questions, Senator Tim Johnson had a higher priority :
Sen. Chris Dodd, D-Conn., chairman of the banking committee, responded to an interview request Wednesday. Dodd said he wanted Johnson, a senior member of the committee, to be at the meeting Thursday. Dodd called it a "very, very important" meeting that will help the committee look ahead at specifics of implementing the bailout and assuring accountability from those who benefit.

Wrong Paul
February 11, 2008
Fantasy, fallacy and factual fumbles from the Republican insurgent.
Summary
Ron Paul doesn’t have much of a chance of winning the Republican nomination, but he persists with his well-funded campaign and even talks of turning it into a permanent “Revolution” that will continue far beyond 2008.
We’ve given his statements little attention until now. But here we look at some of his more outlandi... more

Obama mailer on Clinton health care plan lacks context.
Summary
An Obama mailer stretches the differences between the candidates on health care. Specifically:
It touts measures included in Obama’s plan to help low-income individuals buy insurance but fails to mention that Clinton would provide similar financial assistance.
It says Obama’s plan would save the average family $2,500 per year – an estimate provided by experts at th... more

He faults Romney for “providing” state funding for abortions that Romney didn’t seek, and courts ordered.
Summary
McCain is sending out a postcard mailing in South Carolina that is misleading on more than one point.
It says that “Romney provided taxpayer-funded abortions,” a distortion. Romney’s Massachusetts health-care plan faced a court order requiring abortions to be covered.

Dueling chain e-mails claim he’s a radical Muslim or a ‘racist’ Christian. Both can’t be right. We find both are false.
Summary
If these two nasty e-mail messages are any indication, the 2008 presidential campaign is becoming a very dirty one.
One claims that Obama is “certainly a racist” by virtue of belonging to Chicago’s Trinity United Church of Christ, which it says “will accept only ... more
