The House looks like it just voted AGAINST the bailout bill...
Wow- this could get crazy. If so, the markets will be interesting until close today. They could crash and burn on this news.
This is a crazy development given the news yesterday that a deal had been reached. McCain will feel some pressure here. He supported the bailout bill yesterday, but doesn't seem to have gotten the House Republicans on board. This is surprising. |

The economy is fine. Stop buying into the media bias.

if this goes down, it's because of all the pitchforks.
A classic case of acting before building your case. |

I'm not surprised. The HOuse is always more sensitive to constitutents than the Senate or certainly the President's cabinet.

*Cue the press blaming the Republicans. I don't trust the country to be well-informed enough to know the Dems control everything.

Thank you House GOP for rediscovering your conservatism, for listening to your constituents, and for not being bullied by the scare tactics of your "leaders".
