Greedmonger Barack Obama Sank John McCain's Perfectly Perfect Bailout Bill
More than 60% of House Republicans — and 40% of the House Democrats — voted against the bailout plan today, so Douglas Holtz-Eakin, John McCain's top economic adviser, is placing blame for the bill's failure right where it belongs: On the selfish Commie shoulders of Barack Obama…"Barack Obama failed to lead, phoned it in, attacked John McCain, and refused to even say if he supported the final bill. Just before the vote, when the outcome was still in doubt, Speaker Pelosi gave a strongly worded partisan speech and poisoned the outcome. This bill failed because Barack Obama and the Democrats put politics ahead of country."
Meanwhile, John McCain puts country first, ahead of everything.
Even facts, numbers and reality.
Update: Speaking of facts and numbers, FiveThirtyEight has this fascinating breakdown of how Representatives in tight re-election contests voted.
Douglas Holtz-Eakin will want to close his eyes, so as to avoid reading the part about 17 vulnerable GOP Reps voting against the bailout, as opposed to only 13 vulnerable Democrats.
