Yes there has been some negative coverage, but
not for their VA’s…for their EIA’s.  This only reinforces my
negative outlook on the product.

And if John Edwards is president, get ready for a storm of lawsuits about the suitablity of EIA’s.

John Edwards as President?

EIA’s are only bad when marketed inappropriately.

I work for a wire and also happen to cover 5 bank branches.  I have sold EIA’s.  The only time I ever sell them is if the client is stuck on buying a fixed annuity.  The EIA that I have used is through Jefferson Pilot/Lincoln National (very reputable insurance company) and has surrender periods of 6 or 8 years.  They also provide a guaranteed fixed rate, which is competitive with other fixed annuity rates. 

If someone is absolutely dead set on buying a fixed annuity there is absolutely nothing wrong with this product.  Period. 

Frankly, I dislike all fixed annuity products, but if a prospects demands them it is my job to find the best.
