What am I missing here? Aren’t the Democrats in the majority in both houses of Congress? Doesn’t Bush, the face of the Executive Branch, support the bailout? So just how can a minority in the House of Representatives stop a bailout that has the support of the majority in the Legislative Branch and the Executive Branch?

Sounds to me that the Democrats might have already ‘caught the truck’ on this one – but just don’t have the balls to do with it what they want without some ‘bi-partisan’ cover.

Funny that the Dems are apparently allied with the evil chimpy Bush administration. Seems a good opportunity for McCain to stand up for some real change and demonstrate that it is the Obama crowd who represents moreofthesame.
