Spin Cycle

After speaking this morning on the economic ills triggered by the sub-prime lending crisis, Obama went to a fundraiser at Credit Suisse -- which is, the Clinton campaign helpfully pointed out, one of the top ten subprime lenders in the country.

In fact, the Clinton campaign even has numbers: $150,850 from associates of Credit Suisse, and altogether $1,180,103 from the top ten subprime lenders. List after the jump.

Obama campaign response:

"The American people are tired of the sniping from the Clinton campaign, both real and imagined. Today's event was a general fundraiser in a room paid for by our campaign and attended by people from varied backgrounds who are committed to changing the tone of our politics, and rejecting the kind of tactics that the Clinton campaign is now embracing...Any suggestion that this was a fundraiser hosted by the mortgage industry is as imaginary as the other tall tales that have been coming out of the Clinton campaign lately."

Update: We did a check of campaign finance records. It turns out that Hillary has taken in more than $233,000 from Credit Suisse -- over 50 percent more than Obama.
