After 6 years on the Senate banking committee she managed to not ask a single question, about anything!

And now, our economy is in trouble, banks are failing, and the stock market is dropping.

Elizabeth Dole's lack of action on the committee is an appalling level of oversight. Adding to that, she voted against legislation to help people stay in their homes, and has been labeled as ineffective by North Carolina newspapers.

While Dole sat in silence, she did manage to collect donations from Wall Street to the tune of $850,000. Was it all just "hush-money?"

It's time for Dole to leave the Senate, and clear the way for someone who will speak up for North Carolina.
