U.S. economists nearly flunk McCain on issues

The Economists’ Policy Group on Women’s Issues (EPGWI), made up of economics professors and researchers from 25 U.S. universities, gave McCain two “F”s — the failing grade — for his positions on pay and jobs equity and reproductive rights.

The 72-year-old Republican also got six “D”s, one mark short of failing, and two Cs, with his grade averaging out to D overall. Obama, 47, scored two “A” s— at the opposite end of the scale from an “F” — for reproductive rights and domestic violence. All the rest of his marks were Bs.
