Obama's stopping credit card rates from going up in the future causing credit card companies to hike the rates now isn't Obama's fault. It is a bad thing that will cause some people to slur Obama though. What he needs to do though is put a retroactive clause in his bill that says that any rates that go into effect as a response to his plan will be immediately thrown out when the bill passes.
