Is McCain part of the Wall Street Greedy?

John McCain blames Wall Street greed for current economic conditions.

However, does McCain’s financial success from that same (even worse) type of greed? The type that allows you to compromise ethics for wealth?

“McCain arrived in Arizona, circa 1980, with no ties to the state. Don Bolles had been murdered less than 5 years before. McCain accepted a position as VP of PR at his new father-in-law’s “firm”, Hensley & Co., beer distributorship. McCain had to wonder, and must have found out, the background of Hensley and how he came to own one of the largest beer distributorships in the US, yet he accepted Hensley’s financial help and connections, in his personal life, and in all of his political campaigns.”

A Wall Street Journal poll shows Obama with a double digit lead, 52 to McCain’s 42. The Wall Street Journal is not a liberal newspaper.
What does this mean for McCain? Is this why he is squandering campaign money on clothes for Palin and her kids?
