    obviously it's a lot easier trying to find 100 people to agree about something than it is with over 400... so i'd imagine this thing passes 65-35 give or take 2 votes.

    More like it's a lot easier when you buy off everyone's votes with pork.

    Don't panic yet... this was the vote on a US-India nuclear agreement. Thankfully the voting has yet to start on the bailout. My mistake.

    I've been tuned into C-Span-2 for about the last hour waiting for it. McCain voted no and Obama voted yes for some Amtrack legislation a bit ago.

    I'm not sure, but it looks like the debate just started on the Bailout.

    What do you expect him to say? We're passing this bipartisan bill because Wall Street has been in our pockets for years?

    What's the over/under of McCain mentioning Obama in his speech (if he has one) and also the over/under of Obama mentioning Bush in his speech (if he has one)?

    You know they're full of it, both Dems and Reps, and they're going to pass it. I hope the House didn't spoil you, because these guys will bend over for Wall Street any day of the week and twice on Sunday.
