I just want to take a quick poll...

The reason the dam bill didn't pass is because nobody wanted to get their name behind voting for it. They know when they are up for election, they will see their name on TV saying: .... supported the $700 billion bailout of corporate america and he will raise your taxes.

Hard to pass a bill when 66% of all republicans voted against it.

It was clear when they were working on the bill that they didn't want Obama and McCain their. I can't believe that McCain tried pulling the: "I am going to put my campaign on hold" way out of the debate. It is like he thinks everyone is stupid. McCain wouldn't add any value. He tried all he could to get his name on this and it failed because of his republican party.
