If the majority of Americans don't want a bailout
how will this effect swing votes if the Democrats are for it? Just wondering.

2. Well, no one is going to vote for the "idiot side", but no one is going to trust the Dems either
"just because they 'say so'". We've learned our sorry lesson from the pukes and "we won't get fooled again" ~ Dem or puke or indy. We're paying 'attention' now!

4. Would be more reassuring
if some swing voters would say that.

I tend to dismiss 'just wondering' posts... not enough hours in the day.

14. The problem I see
is no one is out there explaining WHY the bill is needed, WHAT the bill will do, and WHAT is being done so this does not happen again. They are letting talking heads frame the subject along with rancorous posturing from assorted congressmen and women.
